I get the whole appeal of Black Hoof.. I do....adventurous meat dishes. Unfortunately for me adventurous did not equal a satisfying experience. The night started off very well with the duck wings, which although was served as an app, could very well be a full meal given the portion size. I ordered the oxtail and scallops because the combination was too good to resist but was left largely unsatisfied. The scallops were ordinary while the oxtail to me seemed like a subpar breaded cutlet. I also tried the marrow and once again, was left largely unsatisfied. I also tried the beef tongue on brioche and let's just say I've had better....
For me the flavor was lacking in the dishes and it was a tad bit overpriced . Yes it may warrant a second visit and maybe it was overhyped to me and yes I should have ordered the Charcuterie plate but I doubt my opinion will change.
It's decent ...but nothing special.
