| - I will definitely post another review following another visit to Union Social, as I feel like this review I'll give below will not fully represent the restaurants potential.
So, I went here for my birthday lunch, since I've always wanted to try this place but from the outside it looked like a 'special occasion' sort of restaurant.
I entered in and to my surprise it was actually a pretty casual place. We were greeted immediately by a friendly server and taken to a table. It was still pretty early but the restaurant was already busy. As we sat more people kept on entering in, which showed how well the place does. The reason I was so intrigued by this restaurant was that their menu had a lot of variety- from sushi to tacos.
So, the prices were a bit high, but typical for such sort of bar and grills.
I ordered the candy house salad with grilled chicken (which is why I feel my review isn't really fair) because I knew that my dinner will be large, so I opted for the lightest option. My friend got the West coast veggie burger with truffle fries. yeap...he surely splurged and apparently it was worth it. Mine was pretty good, but nothing extraordinary since it was just a salad.
The service was great and efficient, food came in a timely manner, the decor and ambiance was great, and prices were slightly steep but expected. Next time I'll return and try perhaps the salmon and bahn mi tacos. Not a bad restaurant if you want a change from your usual bar and grill.
