| - I wonder if, given a decade or so, we'll look back at this period of rustic architecture and re-purposing of buildings the way we do avocado-green appliances, shag carpeting and fuzzy wall paper.
Regardless, for today and tomorrow, the atmosphere, service and food at Windsor was terrific. I loved every minute of my time there. Hell, even the bathrooms (uni-sex and shared with next-door's Churn were pleasing)! And I LOVE the cassette tape wall. If you're anti-hipster, this is not the place for you. If you dig tasty and cool, stop by soon.
We arrived around 9:30 am on Sunday and the main restaurant held a 15 minute wait, we could have been seated at the bar, but even though it was already a hot morning, seeing a couple groups of young women seating on the patio, we discerned that it couldn't be to bad out there. We were right! Fans and misters made it very nice to eat on the patio. I recommend it.
My daughter ordered the Highroad Sandwich, my gf went with the Crab Cakes Benedict, and I opted for the Matador. Everyone loved their selections and shared them around the table. A side of biscuits and gravy was ordered also, and it was full of big chunks of awesome, local sausage.
So if you like chili verde, go with the Matador. Great take on huevos rancheros, served over Windsor's Griddled Cheddar Potatoes. My only issue was that the tortilla was pretty stiff and difficult to cut, but the flavors were terrific.
The hollandaise on the benedict was a little cheesy for my tastes, but good and freshly made. In fact, our server (Alex) informed us that pretty much everything on the menu was made fresh on site and locally sourced - both big issues in my book, and thankfully becoming the norm in the new restaurant revolution. Unfortunately, price follows the revolution, but in the case of the Windsor, it was worth it.
I'll be back to sample the lunch/dinner menu. Hope to see you there.
