| - Snagged a couple of seats at the bar on a busy Saturday night. Bartender was very helpful suggesting cocktails and food choices since it was our first time visit. We were only interested in a cocktail and snack, not a full meal.
My hubby tried both the Manhattan and Hi Octane Cherry Coke. He liked both but the winner was the sweet cherry Coke. Neither of those are up my alley, so the bartender suggested a floral gin cocktail. I don't remember the name, but it was very light and so fragrant. Every time I took a sip, it was like smelling a beautiful floral bouquet.
For food, we went with the 1/2# smoked pork spareribs. The food came out super fast which surprised me as they were very busy. The ribs were meaty, moist, tender and perfect. The Mabel's BBQ sauce, made with CLE Ballpark mustard was fantastic with the smoked meat. I enjoyed pairing the meat with the Cleveland Kraut and hubby liked the spicy pickles.
A couple of notes: The meat choices may sell out by the end of the night. By the time we were leaving, they were out of both pork and lamb ribs.
Table seating is communal, you may make a new friend.
Bathrooms are 1 seaters, so there may be a line for the ladies room. Wish they would have made the 2 bathrooms gender neutral :(
