| - I've been to Mechant Boeuf a few times, and it really depends on what you go there for that makes or breaks your night.
If you go there for predrinks with a few friends and perhaps a small bite to eat, you'll be good. Being a packed and loud place, it's not so good for first dates or any type of meetup that would require much conversation. The atmosphere is very trendy and the restaurant is often full, so make a reservation beforehand.
As for the food, I've enjoyed their crab cakes, fried calamari MB style, and stack of goat cheese and roasted beets. However, when I tried their beef hanger, I wasn't very satisfied, I found it was a bit chewy and had to be cut into small pieces so I wouldn't choke... still ate it, but 'meh' would truly capture my lack of excitement over it. I'd be really interested in sharing their roasted chicken on a beer can next time I go, it's a great spin on chicken that I have never seen elsewhere.
