This place has a very laid back, welcoming demeanor. We sat at the bar and had friendly, charming service from...I wanna say Scott but that might not be right. I overheard the host say he was the general manager - and what a friendly GM he is.
The food:
We had the pakoras, some fries, the chorizo and the trout tacos. The food is more upscale than the vibe of the restaurant suggests, and generally it's delicious. We loved almost everything, especially the chimichuri that came with the chorizo. My one complaint is the menu didn't indicate the trout in the taco would be served raw. Because of this, I didn't eat it. Maybe I should have known and I just don't eat enough tacos.
Then there's the beer. Burdock is a fun, local brewery and all their products deserve a taste. My favourite is the Té!
