Only stopped in for drinks. Service was very kind and attentive, and the drink was very good. But the atmosphere seems a little unfinished and/or rough around the edges. It felt like a confusing mix of a low key neighborhood bar and an aspiring food destination.
The bartender-server made me a fantastic strawberry margarita, not too sweet and a bit spicy. The grilled avocado and pork chop were delicious. Unfortunately, the prices – especially for the mains – felt out of control, while the portions were small. Had the pork chop come with something beyond four shishito peppers, I might have been okay with $36 for it, but as is I left hungry and went across the street after dinner for an order of French fries.
