| - My overall rating for MGB rates four stars, but there were five-star moments during the visit.
Our party of seven arrived a little early for our reservation, and were seated promptly. We started out by ordering two beer samplers. Although I am not a fan of some beer styles, they were all quality beers. I stuck with the Scotch Ale for most of the night, which was very enjoyable. We also ordered the tortilla chips w/salsa and guacamole to soak up the beer - not bad.
For apps, we shared the following:
- chorizo cheddar pierogies (okay, pretty mild)
- mussels (only had one, but the sauce was tasty)
- beef cheek sliders (outstanding, highly recommended)
- pomme poutine (thank you sir, may I have another)
- market garden meat board (only tried a couple items here, but they put a lot of effort into creating quality meats)
For the main course, I shared dishes with another in my party. The fried chicken was a little fatty, but the batter was amazing. I also am not a fan of grits in general, but it perfectly complimented the heat from the sriracha honey sauce. Also tried the red chili chicken tacos, which were as spicy as advertised. Both were very good, overall.
Our server was efficient, and when my wife had an issue with her veggie sandwich (something tasted a little off), she offered to either take it off and/or replace with another item. My wife went for the Market Garden Burger, which was outstanding (I had to take a bite). She claims it is the best burger she has ever had at a restaurant.
The West 25th area is really coming into its own, and Market Garden Brewery is certainly a destination eatery. Everyone in our party was thoroughly impressed, and we will be back soon.
