| - I went here for dinner last Saturday (2/2/2013) with my boyfriend. It wasn't incredibly busy, and we opted to sit indoors because it was too cold to eat outside. The decor is very chic and it was dimly lit-great date spot.
We both ordered Moscow Mules..and I'm a bit of a snob about this drink (I'll admit it). It didn't come in a copper mug, as I feel it should but it was less expensive than I would normally pay at somewhere like Hanny's or Citizen Public House-So I guess that's to be expected. I truly do feel that it effects the flavor. Good drink nonetheless.
Upon taking a look at the menu, I noticed that it says that many of the entrees can be made meat free. While I appreciate the effort to cater to vegetarians, many of the entree items had meat in the name--removing it from the dish seems a bit pointless, and almost begs the question that if I ordered the Chicken Curry and asked for no meat, am I still paying the same price? My suggestion is that they should just have another menu (or more menu items) that's veg-friendly.
We ordered the Hummus Tripoli, which was pretty good. For the main course, my boyfriend ordered the Montana BBQ Pork sandwich and I ordered the Sriracha and Chive Caesar salad. My boyfriend commented that there was no BBQ sauce on the sandwich, which was understandably confusing. The salad I received was good, not overwhelmingly exciting as I expected it to be. I had ordered it purely because I'm a Sriracha addict. And I also thought it was not worth what I paid for it.
Overall, service was okay. Our server appeared to be the only one working so service was a bit slower than expected. I am giving this restaurant 3 stars based on the fact that although my experience was so-so, I feel as though this restaurant has good potential. I'd come back once the restaurant has been open a few months.
