| - We were super excited about eating here, and the menu sounded amazing, but our expectations were just not met. Overall, the experience was okay, but not great.
First of all, the place was so incredibly loud that I literally couldn't talk to my husband who was two feet across the table from me. We could also barely hear our server, and I felt like I had to yell at him to order. There was a party of about twenty women right behind us who kept cheering and yelling and singing and honestly just being obnoxious. I understand that there is little the staff could've done to quiet them down, but maybe they could've been seated in one of the more private areas?
For cocktails, we each ordered the woodsman, which was meh. It was a little flavorless and really didn't taste like the description.
For food, we split:
- caesar toast: very tasty and fresh; one of my favorites
- k-town bao burger: needed more sauce and seasoning
- chile relleno empanadas: quite yummy, but a little cold when they came out
- grilled cheese, smoked bacon, and tomato soup dumplings: our favorite dish; they were fun and inventive
- roasted mushroom pizzetta: underwhelming; I didn't taste the truffle cream at all
- carrot layer cake: the cake itself was great, but the ice cream just felt unnecessary and didn't complement the cake very well
I thought it was a bit annoying that you had to exit the restaurant to use the bathroom. The pawn shop idea in the front seems cute, but it's just another barrier when getting to the bathroom, especially since so many people were crowded in there.
