I really wanted to love this place but like many of the other reviews I also agree that the execution was not nearly as good as I had hoped it would be.
I came to the Paintbox for an event so I never had a plated meal just drinks and small snacks.
They seemed to have a good selection of craft beer. I had Beaus. It was ridiculously pricy but I'm not sure if that's because of the Paintbox or just because Beau's is always a bit pricy.
The staff were very friendly and were helpful but the food definitely left something to be desire. They seemed to try and execute some pretty extravagant type of snacks, pork belly, some other pork dish and nachos with some sort of vegetarian salsa. They lacked flavour and weren't my thing.
I really like the concept of the Paintbox and I am interested in trying it again sometime because it's a pretty neat location and the atmosphere inside the restaurant is kind of cool. I'm a bit weary of the food though but maybe that's just because we had a large group.
