A welcome addition to a neighborhood bereft of any nice restaurants or bars, but a few kinks still need to be worked out.
The cocktails are reasonably priced and creative, but most non-classics end of being far too sweet. A friend ordered a rye-based drink in which the citrus was more forward than any smoke from the whiskey. The manahattans are good, but again a bit on the sweet side. Spirit selection is great here, however, so that (or beer) may be the way to go.
The food is interesting. Totally fine overall, but nothing noteworthy. I agree that the entrees seem a bit overpriced, though the appetizers aren't bad. Some of the best things we had were the ricotta fritters and cheese plate, both of which had a great honey drizzled over them. But I ordered the mussels and clams as a main and was genuinely puzzled to find what looked like patatas bravas dumped on top of the middle of the dish. Yep -- mayo and (undercooked) potatoes right in the middle of what was otherwise a delicious dish (sauce was great!). Hopefully, the menu gets simplified and the chef sticks with simple but good dishes rather than complicated and lackluster ones.
