We had the house wine and tried the pretzel which was enormous and served with a queso and delicious tender, lean pulled pork with house made pickles. We also tried the smash burger, coleslaw (yum), baked beans (extra yum) and the potato salad was cold but underwhelming. The music is great and at a decent decibel where you're not hearing the ax throwing too much. Will be back again soon

It was the very best meal we have had here (and we have had a lot of wonderful meals). For our first courses, the tuna tartare was so fresh and paired perfectly with the homemade chips. My husband had the mussels and the broth was drinkable, it was so delicious. We both had the filet for our mains. They were perfectly cooked medium rare with craveworthy pave potatoes. We sat at the bar and Courtney was a wonderful host/server/bartender working the perfect balance of conversation and privacy.

If you are married to a meat and potato person - maybe not the best place...although they do have a fancy burger on the menu.

There were two hosts to greet me upon arrival. The space can be a little tricky to find if you've never been before.. if facing restaurant from the street you need to go to the right of it in a little alley way like spot and door is on your left in that space. The ambiance is upbeat and medium loud. Medium to dim lit with 7 or so spots at the bar and then tables near window or in dining room. There are wine, beer, and cocktail options. I had a blackberry cocktail with egg white, blackberry compote and gin. It was very good. Not too sweet or sour and light and fresh. The customers varied from older couples to dad and their kid to people in their early to mid 30's.

Lunch arrived with 10 minutes of our ordering. My wife got a Mexican Salad loaded with fresh grilled shrimp. There must have been ten shrimp - all decent size. I ordered Cabrillos- a shredded beef & cheese inside a grilled corn tortilla. Magnificent accurately describes this dish. I could only eat two of the three folded tortillas that were served with lunch. We cannot wait to return for more delights. The restaurant has been open 8 months and I wish them continued success.
