Date night with my meat and potato hubby, who looooves BBQ. Well, we both do.
It really has that wood lodge with heaters and blankets feel.
Superb service. Owner, Anthony Rose was doting.
It's communal seating so we made conversation with two chefs next to us. They even shared their food with to help us decide!
We ordered:
Cream soda, purple Jesus and white wine - ok but nothing outstanding.
Baby back ribs - they're not fall off the bone, a little chewy, slightly disappointed. Though, the side dish of potato salad is great.
Duck Confit Burrito - delicious. Cherry sour cream gives it a nice touch.
Split Pea Stew - standout. My favourite childhood dish. Ham hock was so tender and the stew had that smoky, woodsy flavour. The brisket was good but not necessary. I could eat this dish every day!
Bakermans (aka Hello Dollies) and brownie squares - comfort dessert, nothing out of the ordinary here but thoroughly satisfying.
We came out smelling like a smoke house and were high on comfort.
Would return and recommend.
