MRK Public serves very tasty sandwiches and offers excellent, friendly service. The menu features flavorful options like the braised beef sandwich, chicken sandwich, and special dishes like the "chicken ribs" with a three-step grilling, smoking, and slow cooking process. The restaurant also offers pastrami prepared from scratch, which is a standout dish. The atmosphere is cozy both indoors and outdoors, making it a popular spot among locals. Recent visitors praise the fried chicken sandwich, pastrami sandwich when on special, dal makhani fries, and Thai beef salad, all described as great. The venue provides a casual setting that works well after the beach or for date night. The wine and beer selections are appreciated, and the open space inside gives a feeling of sitting outside. Although service can be slow when busy, staff are friendly. The menu may be small, but the options are delicious, including dishes like the banh mi sandwich with grilled chicken and hot chili brussel sprouts. Overall, MRK Public offers elevated casual dining with a welcoming atmosphere and a menu that exceeds expectations.
