| - Once we found out about TapHouse, we never considered eating in our hotel bar again.
I'm serious.
Upscale but relaxed, trendy but mellow, this place is a great example of what excellent food and service should be, all bundled up in an atmosphere where you can wear your flip flops or a fancy dress - or both.
To say we loved this place is an understatement.
First of all, the food - we were at happy hour or here mid-day I think 4 days in a row? In a city where there are so many awesome restaurants, that's an attestation of excellence.
GET THE CHICKEN WINGS. Yes, there are only 4. But they will fill you up because they are gigantic wings, that are perfectly cooked without breading (yes!) with a beautiful buffalo sauce with a hint of honey that pairs so well with the maytag blue cheese drizzle they come with.
They were so good I forgot to take pictures.
And we ordered them again.
And I again forgot to take pictures. Trust me, they speak for themselves.
The fondue (Fon-don't-you-dare!) is also stellar. Be forewarned, if you are sensitive to spicy foods, the fondue bread comes with a little heat. But my goodness, the sauce, and the crispiness of the bread... aw yes.
We also were delighted by their crabcake, and their burger.
Do it. Just go here.
Beer selection: well-rounded and delicious. I had a double IPA whose name was FYITM (I'll let you figure out what that acronym stands for), and suggestions following that beer were excellent and spot on.
Service: Bartenders were fantastic. Super fun, super polite, and very knowledgeable of their product.
Absolutely, go here if you want the trifecta of 5 star food, 5 star beer/drinks and 5 star people - all with a clean, relaxed atmosphere.
