| - I tried Aft before a show at The Opera House down the road, and I'm fairly impressed. We were seated immediately outside on a small fenced patio behind the building. Our server was prompt and well-informed. Tuesdays are taco night, $12 for 3, brisket, pulled pork, chicken and fish. My guest ordered the sous vide steak (which was rated top 5 by Now Magazine, apparently).
There are 3 home-made sauces: one sweet with mango, one smoky (a Texas-style sauce), and one hot pepper with maple. These sauces were great to compliment my tacos. The tacos were of a fair size but somewhat on the cool side (likely had to wait for the steak to finish). The steak was fantastic; I can see how it's top 5. The fries were crisp and well-seasoned.
Overall, I'd return to Aft if I was out in that area, but I wouldn't make a special trip. My one wish is that the food was a bit warmer, but you can't have everything.
