| - Went to Cuff for dinner and drinks before walking around Glendale Glitters last night, and had a great experience.
Weather was nice, so we opted to sit out on the patio. Started with some drinks and a charcuterie board, all of which was very good. I enjoyed an HGT, and my husband had an Old Fashioned, and they were both very well mixed with garnishes that complemented the drinks nicely. The charcuterie board had a good variety of cheeses, meats, olives, nuts, and berries, and was served with a flatbread.
For our entrees, I had the shrimp po boy sandwich, and my husband had the house burger. Both were served with cajun-seasoned fries, and we had no complaints with the food. The shrimp in my sandwich were very good, with a light breading that didn't make the meal feel too heavy.
We had a few more drinks, my favorite of which was their house spin on the Moscow Mule. They use a fig-infused vodka that is absolutely delicious, as well as an extra-spicy ginger beer, that really adds a ton of flavor to the drink. We were very happy to see a variety of locally-sourced products on the menu, and that the bar staff were using the herbs planted on the patio for use in their drinks! Doesn't get any fresher than that!
We were both very happy with our first visit to Cuff, and would like to come back and check out their other offerings, since it looks like their menu rotates seasonally. We talked to several members of the wait/bar staff, and they were all very friendly and personable, and helped to make our experience so positive.
Definitely recommend for a chill date night, or for happy hour!
