| - Wow, what a surprise. My buddy told me once he got wings and they were awesome, so by that sole input and what I saw while walking by it for some reason I thought this was just a small bar on the 17th avenue strip - Nope! This is a legit restaurant that boasts a menu that rivals any of the top tier restaurants in the area.
Decor is really cool, at the front that have high top tables with leather cushioned high top chairs with a soft back, small detail but to me makes the whole meal so much more enjoyable to be super comfortable. They start you off with complementary popcorn, for my night it had a mesquite rub on them - it got devoured quickly. Was with a group so we ordered a bunch of things, quick run-down:
Candied bacon appetizer - at $5, a great way to start!Lamb - incredible, side 'sauce' (orange colored) was out of this world
Beef cheek ravioli - maybe the star of the show, very big and very flavorful
Cock - get the cock! One of the better birds I have ever had!
Tuna - very unique, long thin strips of Tuna, loved it
Beef tartare - loved it, served with mini baguette like rolls
Asparagus with speck and egg confit - pretty good but the speck was lacking
Soft shell crab slider - okay, nothing too special (the other sliders looked amazing)
Bucatini - was pretty good but not super memorable, a bit to heavy on the pasta and light on the meat (cannot recall what it was on the menu, but small bits of it for sure)
Drinks were great, the special old fashioned was good but a little too expensive to have more than one ($17), I'd suggest going with a Manhattan instead.
