| - We went to the Brickyard Saturday night at 7:30. Sadly to note, they don't take reservations. It was full, we got the last 2 seats at the end of the bar in front of Bobby's station. After Bobby introduced himself and gave us a very friendly introduction and handshake, we reviewed the drink and food menu. We loved the speakeasy crafty cocktail selection and nibbles. The atmosphere was classic, very nice, open brick, tin roof, rustic feel, very loud which was fine for us, maybe hard to hear if you were in a large group.
My dining partner ordered an Old Fashion and I tried the The French 75 after which I moved onto a Pimm's Cup cocktail. We decided to order from the sharing plates, in between our cocktails. We ordered the Steak & Egg Carpaccio (Truffle Aioli, Quail Eggs, Crostini, Caper Berries, Micro Arugula), Stuffed Piquillo Peppers (Saffron Risotto, Chorizo, Herb Puree, Pistachios), Pork and Shrimp Gyoza's (Fried Crisp, Sweet Chili, Pickled Radish), and the Pork Belly (Garlic Chips, Honey Soy, Ryu Powder)
The drinks were excellent, on the very pricey side for Chandler though. The sharing plates were very good, the Pork Belly could be more generous though. Other than that very good but again very pricey.
Service was excellent, though was not greeted by the manager as everyone said "they were", he was too busy talking with his familiar customers. We will definitely be back, just hope it stays in business with that price point.
