Fantastic experience.
We walk in and there's a 10 to 15 minute wait so we go to the bar and get a couple of drinks. The drink menu is eclectic and cute. A good variety to suit any mood but not large so you're not standing there and reading a menu for 10 minutes debating the merits between drinks that all sound more or less the same anyway.
We were seated right in the ballpark estimated time at the counter in front of the kitchen. Now, being a chef myself, I love this location but I will say that the seats were ever so slightly uncomfortable. I don't think there was enough leg clearance for those of us with longer legs and I found myself with my feet all over my friends purse.
The food. Yes, it's good. Like, really really good. They pace the items so that whatever is ready first will come first. I like this but I was also kind of disappointed. We ordered the chicken thighs which take 20-30 min. This made us think that we'd get this dish last but we got some other things afterwards. It made us think that maybe they forgot or maybe it wasn't put through.
The food is absolutely delicious though. Everything we got was very tasty and full of flavor. The black rice risotto with oxtail is my dream dish. AMAZING!
This is definitely going to become a "GO-TO" place for me.
