| - Holy Haberdish Batman, this place definitely lives up to the hype and then some. Originally I had come here the other week with a large group (16 peeps) and they were able to seat us all at one table because we arrived for an early dinner [had a show to attend later]. I was so occupied with getting everyone there on time, I really missed out on trying the food. Never-the-less, I came back with a smaller group this time.
A Thursday evening, and the wait for a table was an hour... so we braved it on their heated patio (which I had no idea they had when I came here the first time). It actually worked out and we had a great dinner. This patio space is going to be amazing once the weather gets warmer... they have these large sliding barn doors (naturally closed for the winter) but I could see the space really opening up and bringing the outside in.
Haberdish doesn't take reservations, but you can use the NoWait App to see how long the wait is also put your name down and see yourself move up in the queue... once you get called/texted, you have 10min to claim your table.
I was with other yelpers and we totally over ordered, but the food was super good. And it was a fun evening taking photos of all the dishes: tenders, mac & cheese with chicken skins, glazed carrots, kale grits, tots, okra, butter pickles, hush puppies, sweet potato dumplings, cornbread pudding, and coleslaw. The real gems that stood out were the carrots and kale grits which totally blew us away and were nice unexpected treats in comparison to everything else that was super tasty.
Cocktails are Haberdish's thing as well. I tried the Xmas Mule which was delicious and super photogenic.
Despite being super slammed, we were still greeted very warmly and even greeted on our way out...our server did a great job splitting our check since we shared everything and she did tempt us with dessert, but we were all full to the brim with food and drink.
