| - Went for dinner, first experience here.
Busy night but we were seated fairly soon at high-top table with a footrest bar, interesting but a little hard to keep my sandals on as my feet dangled or slipped on the bar! Trendy décor, rather noisy, conversation was difficult, also the light over our table was out so it was quite dark, not so good to read the small printed menu. A nice outdoor patio where a musician was playing, music piped inside too but sound system made a regular and rather annoying cracking noise. They also have a number of very long high top tables that could accommodate a large group intimately or several groups of guests for community dining.
As for the food - we tried crispy chicken thighs and asigo-crusted halibut. Both entrees were very flavorful with a pretty presentation. 3 pieces of chicken, each served on a smashed potato, some kind of sauce all around. Yummy with leftovers to go home. The halibut was seriously overcooked, not flaky but mushy. I debated about sending it back but I was hungry and it tasted great so I didn't mention to our server. If it had been properly (or even semi-properly) cooked, this entrée would have been outstanding. The flavor was delicious in spite of the overcooked state of the fish. Served w/ broccolini.
Service was adequate but not inspiring.
I noted Happy Hour specials and some other interesting items on the menu. I plan to go back and try the patio next time.
