| - Every single visit I've had to Windsor has been positive. Whether I'm sitting out on the patio under low lights next to a heater, or inside a cozy booth by their spacious bar inside, it is always a wonderful atmosphere to enjoy with friends or on a date.
Enough about the atmosphere, though - the food. I haven't met a dish here that I don't like. They have great salads (my favorite is the ahi tuna salad) that leave you satisfied. The sandwiches are the star here, though. I have enjoyed everything from the Backyard Burger to the Bahn Mi, and they are all spectacular. Great medium cook on the burger, tangy sauces (even a good kick on the bahn mi), amazing pork belly in the porkwitch... it's just so good. My favorite so far though has been the Oyster Po Boy. Giant pieces of lightly fried oysters and a huge helping of slaw to top it in the perfect roll.
The sides continue to rock my socks. Most people will rave about their mac and cheese, and it certainly deserves its accolades, but my favorite is the fried okra. The cornmeal breading stays on it perfectly and the dipping sauce they serve with it is perfection.
"But Libby!" You exclaim. "Whatever shall I drink with these delicious dishes?" Oh, let me tell you, friend. Do not miss the liquor at Windsor. The Number 63, with burbon, fresh grapefruit and honey syrup is the bomb.com. Not too sweet, not too bitter, not too liquory, just right. My other favorite is the Number 9 with rye, pineapple and mint. They're all worth a go (I just lean towards darker liquors) - definitely give it a shot. (see what I did there?)
Overall, this is one of my favorite places in the valley. Upward Projects knew what they were doing when they created this amazing place for everyone (next to an ice cream store, no less) - it's a must in my book!
