This is a really cute space. From my recollection of the prior iteration of the restaurant, it does not look much different. Decent sized bar, cozy interior, nice patio seating in front and back. I agree with the review stating that more cocktail options would be appreciated. I would also like to see a few more by-the-glass wine options on the happy hour menu. I tried the Uptown Girl, which was light and refreshing but not terribly memorable.
The menu is a somewhat odd ethnic mix. My friends tried the steamed buns and spare ribs and seemed to like them. The burrata appetizer was really good, with toasted fig bread. The crispy cauliflower was tasty but not at all crispy (the waiter said it is supposed to be lightly fried and crispy). The sugar snap peas were really good, but drowned in too much sauce. The pibil tacos were also tasty, but cannot compete with those at Barrio Queen right down the street.
The server was helpful and friendly, without being cloying. They were very nice about turning on the patio heater when I got cold. Not sure this spot will end up in my regular rotation, but definitely worth checking out.
