| - I have to look at some of the reviews and scratch my head - me and my wife live nearby in the North Side and had heard great things from our neighbors since they opened.
We stopped in on a Friday evening after work and sat down right away. Our server was awesome - really friendly, and helpful with any questions we had.
For drinks me and my wife ordered the Bertha, which was a slam dunk...make sure you try it. To eat my wife ordered the Halusky and I went with the low country Stroganoff, one of my favorite comfort foods. Now I'm polish, and this Halusky was a creative take on the dish...a bit different than our family recipe but still delicious. The stroganoff was served over cheesy & buttery grits instead of noodles that I'm used to, but it still rocked my world. I almost licked the plate because the grits were so good, and I typically don't even like them that much. I hope they decide to start serving them as a side or by themselves!
We were both pretty hungry so we decided to try an order of the Mac and cheese with hot sauce, and we cleaned that up as well. They must have thought we had never eaten before
When we were finished Don, their owner, stopped by our table and talked with us for a bit - really nice guy and clearly interested making sure this place succeeds.
Don't let the iffy reviews throw you off, this place rocks. If you want something vegan or a huge menu, you can find that nearby in Lawrenceville.
If you want some delicious comfort food that soothes the soul, come here - its what they're good at.
