| - Wanted to love it...and I did!
First and foremost, love the decor, love the vibe. Mid century vintage lighting, paired with an entire wall treatment made out of old cassette tapes...whats not to love? Killer music.
We started with two ice cold no.89's and they hit the spot, very smooth, mild pear taste, perfect cocktail for a summer night. We also chose to sit inside.
Our first item was the double dip, very good! I hate eggs, but I liked the Cobb dip anyway, it was that good. The posole salsa was delicious and my fave of the two, paired with the kettle chips it hit the spot.
For our entrees we selected the mixed grain salad (excellent vegetarian option) and it was light, but substantial enough to be a meal. The orange basil dressing is fabulous without being too sweet. I also order a side of the house smoked salmon which was incredible, best I've had, my only complaint would be the portion size, very small, but maybe my opinion is skewed because I enjoyed it so much I wanted more...
We also ordered the Porkwich which was very generously portioned! Holy smokes it was large, wasn't sure how it could be maneuvered to get a bite, but we managed and thoroughly enjoyed it! Here's a tip: once you have picked up the Porkwich, don't put it down! You wont be able to arrange it properly again :) Also opted for a side of mac & cheese, it was good, and a nice departure from typical "side" offerings. Great staff from host to server! The only element missing from this picture are fabulous deserts...coming soon I hope?
All and all great new spot, next time, and there will be a next time soon, we're sitting on the patio it looks fab :)
