| - Super excited this place is finally open. Not only that, but it was just as good as I had hoped it would be. Tons of good things to say about the place, but I'll start with the two negatives so we can get that out of the way.
The waitress heard me say cheese pizza instead of goat cheese pizza. Probably my fault actually, because it was loud and I am a self-proclaimed mumbler. This mistake was fixed promptly and the pesto goat cheese pizza was awesome. Second problem was that the fried asparagus was somewhat whelming. It was really big, so if you're going for size great, but smaller spears aren't woody textured like the big spears. I assume that since they specify they use local when they can, that this problem will remedy itself once asparagus comes into season in a few weeks around here.
Now for the mega good stuff:
Deadhead double red is probably THE BEST red ale I've ever had. It is strong, spicy, flavorful and full bodied. Just wonderful! Everyone at my table liked their other flavors (and we went with some beer snobs ;) The hubby loved, loved, loved the coffee glazed rib-eye. Service was surprisingly good granted that it was the first weekend they were open. The people getting bad service in the other review...sorry, we must've been hogging all the attention ;).
We actually liked the place so much we went back for brunch on the next day. Which was even. more. amazing.
Ordered the swordfish tacos (see pics) and Cuban sandwich, and the french toast (see pics) for the munchkin. The kids French toast was ridiculously awesome. Here's the most awesome kicker- we were with a big group with 4 kids and the back room was open, so they gave it to us to have our brunch back there so the kids wouldn't bother anyone else. It was an awesome experience and the whole staff was soooo super nice. Make sure to check out my food pics- the kids meal was 1/3 eaten when I took the pic, but you can imagine the thrill in junior's eyes when he saw what he got for breakfast! :)
Awesome place guys! Keep up the good work!
