Did you say Happy Hour from 5 pm to 8 pm? Wait! AND half price steaks? Had dinner with a friend before a show at the Smith Center. Herbs and Rye is in the old Venetian Italian restaurant. Loved the dark speakeasy vibe and brick walls. Caution: let your eyes adjust or you will run over the hostess! We started with the calmari appetizer. It was crispy and served with a delicious aioli. The crispy pancetta was a nice touch. BTW - it was a very large serving. I order the filet mignon and it melted in my mouth! My side was the crispy truffle french fries. YUM! They have an extensive cocktail list that is sectioned by time period. I opted for the French 75. It is one of my favorite cocktails and Herbs and Rye did not disappoint!
Our server was awesome and kept us on schedule for our 7:30 show! Love Herbs and Rye!
