“Monday night ramen was fantastic! I got bao buns, the fried chicken one was my favorite, crunchy and delicious. Pickled cauliflower in the dirty martini was a nice touch. Lots of nice touches here, I can’t wait to come back!”
“New favorite spot!! Love the concept of an upgraded dive bar with lots of nostalgia going on everywhere you look. The service is attentive and prompt from the moment you walk in the door. The pickled eggs are my favorite —an old world snack revived. Mushroom toast was outstanding and also ate every last bit of the watermelon salad. Whether you’re just cruising through town as a tourist or a neighborhood resident, it is definitely worth checking out.”
“This place is awesome! The food was impressive as well as the cocktails and service. I ordered the tots (wonderful) and the octopus. I was expecting a sous vide, grilled octopus at a bar but here I am, lashing a review for the awesome octopus dish I had at 10 o’clock on a Tuesday in a dive bar. I’ll be back. My only gripe is ala cart burgers, but that’s for everyone who’s selling burgers and fries separate, just give me the potatoes with the sammich bro”
