Stopped here last Saturday night as we could not get into DC Steak house across the street for lack of reservation. This placed happily and energetically seated us with a smile. Albeit to a wobbly table that had to be steadied by a serving napkin.
This is a beautifully designed restaurant of a former glass store/factory. In fact they use some of the artfully designed glasses for water and wine. Contemporary and open with a nice 40 person private dining room upstairs for parties and business events.
The menu is an eclectic blend of American, Mexican, Middle Eastern, French and I think even some South American. I have never been a big fan of such a grouping of dishes on a menu but hey, if food is good all is well. Partner had a Tartine board ( basically a French open faced sandwich) and ginger coconut soup. Like I said, eclectic blend of food. The tartine was tasty and a healthy blend of veggies and cheese. I thought soup was a little bland considering The ingredients. Now, I had their signature VB Bistro steak. Whenever I see a non description of a steak with no info on the cut. I know it is usually a lower grade cut of beef. Nothing new here. Description said a tender cut. Nothing of the sort. It lacked any marbling and was very chewy and tough. I think this may have been a sirloin cut of beef. It was served as slices with a chimichuri sauce. I would suggest they upgrade this beef selection here to something more tender. Service was pretty good and crowd was typical for a downtown Chandler restaurant. A blend of all types.
Focus the menu, serve better grades of beef and I might try again.
