| - All of my cousins and I went out to dinner for an adults only night out to take a break from the kiddies. We were all immediately drawn to the cocktail menu. I got a Pomona, a whiskey based drink, which was really good. I ended up drinking two of those throughout the night. Everyone else enjoyed their drinks - Margarita, the Zeus, Spiced Rum Cider.
For apps, we got vegetarian friendly apps since 3 of our party were non-carnivores. We decided on the beer cheese fondue and the triple frite threat. The cheese fondue was amazing. It came with beef jerky, soft pretzel sticks, and apples. One of my cousins liked it so much that she stopped the waitress from taking it away, so she can eat it with her main course. LOL The triple frite threat was great also. The fries were traditional, eggplant, and sweet potato fries. All were quite addicting and it came with dipping sauces - spicy ketchup, rosemary and garlic ailois.
For dinner, I ended up getting the potato gnocchi. It came with braised short ribs, blue cheese cream, wild mushrooms, and spinach. I swear that these were the biggest gnocchi I ever had and the braised short ribs on top of the gnocchi were fantastic . It's a combination I never had before and I was so full that I couldn't finish it. Definitely a filling meal. Three of us ended up getting the gnocchi dish. Everyone else enjoyed their meals - 2 sandwiches (eggplant parmesan and grilled Tuscan chicken), a salad with the risotto cheese balls, and the wild mushroom ravioli.
We didn't get dessert because we headed down the street to Sweet Moses but the options looked quite good.
Overall a great meal. This place is definitely a hip and happening place. More so later at night. Definitely wouldn't mind come back here again.
