We came for their first Saturday and I'm struggling to find adjectives for "awesome".
They'll be brewing their own beer in the next few weeks so I won't review beverages. Great temp selection of brews for now.
Regarding food: we ordered the pretzel, chicken-fried calamari, and rapini salad as small plates, and shared the lamb meatball sandwich. From a portion perspective, it's more than enough for two.
Pretzel: perfectly chewy, comes with wonderful house-made butter and a great honey mustard (it packs a punch, not to be taken lightly).
Calamari: you know rubber? You know how calamari so often tastes like rubber? This is NOT that. This is the opposite of that. Perfectly tender inside, crispy on the outside. Deserves accolades.
Rapini salad: this has the texture you wish all your salads had. It's got a great crunch and perfectly balanced out our otherwise heavy meal.
Lamb meatball sandwich: lots of strong flavours. Recommend.
Lemon tart: to be clear, we did not need more food at this point... BUT IT WAS SO GOOOOOOOOD.
Shout out to our server, Andrew: very attentive service. We felt super welcomed and taken care of throughout our meal. This is not a restaurant that's struggling with process or keeping up with demand.
I'll update the review if things change. So far: A+++++.
