I've been meaning to try out this place for a while now. I follow them on Fb and the pictures they post always make my mouth water.
Going by the name of the resto Skin +Bones I had this idea in my mind this was a hipsterish restaurant that served uncomplicated dishes for an arm and a leg. I was pleasantly surprised to find that this is a super sleek resto with great food and great service.
Our server later explained what inspired the name of the resto Skin for grape skins and Bones for animal bones. Makes sense right?
The Space
Spacious dining area, the back dining room serves as their PDR for special events and it also has a 12 seater bar top that offers the full menu.The ambiance is casual and relaxed.
The Drinks
No girly cocktails here!.They make them nice and stiff. I definitely got my money's worth.
I only had one drink all night and I had a pretty good buzz going.
I had a Negroni and my bf had the Toronto and the Smoked Bardstown.
The Food
We came the day after Vday and they were still offering their pre fix menu $90 for 2 ppl which was a great deal but we opted for the a la carte menu.
I had the Radicchio salad which had the best croutons I've had and they seemed to be made in house My bf ordered the pork cracklings that were good but he thought they are best to share.
For my main I had the grilled octopus with chickpeas.The octopus was cooked perfectly not chewy at all and the chickpeas had a great citrus kick to them.
My bf had the pork belly which you can never go wrong with.
For dessert we shared the sticky toffee this was decadent and delicious.
The Service
our server Chris was very knowledgeable and elevated our experience by giving us great recommendations and explaining the dishes in detail.
I would come back here in a heartbeat. i'd love to try their brunch next time.
