This place is just OK for me.
The good: the room was beautiful and I liked the details a lot. The service was great, no complaints.
The food: drinks were good but pricey.
Apps were enjoyable. Creole croquettes and Koren fried cauliflower.
The main was nicely presented. We did the bbq platter. Honestly, I really dislike fatty meat and found the brisket too fatty to enjoy. I did enjoy the burnt ends. The ribs were OK. The cornbread was overcooked and absent of jalapeño flavour. Coleslaw was really good and probably the best thing I ate (which is sad).
The fried chicken was the largest disappointment. It had way too much breading, which was completely without flavour. Carbon bar should be ashamed about this. Truly. I like to get KFC (as in, Kentucky fried chicken) every so often and it's way better. Which is not what I expect when visiting a place like carbon bar.
I appreciated the sauce selection that came with the platter. They were all very tasty.
I might go back but prob wouldn't order the same thing.
