Fried chicken was fine but not overly flavorful, fries were under fried. Cured meats were good. The specialty butter in the bread didn't pair well with any of the bread and was a gross combination of raspberry and spices.

Great patio space (shaded in the evening so bring a sweater if it’s a chilly night) and DELICIOUS food.

Jerry with Offline - The service was above average. Our server was Personable, but could’ve been a little more attentive. We shared a cheese plate which a little skimpy but it was OK. My wife had the shrimp and grits which were very soupy and they were kind enough to remove from the bill. I had the pork shank which I have to say was excellent. It was a substantial shank, and the meat literally fell off the bomb without being too soft. The texture was excellent. It was served with puréed sweet potatoes, topped with some collard greens both of which were outstanding. I would definitely recommend this dish. Overall our experience was good bit would for an entrée other than the shrimp and grits. I di believe they have other good options. I will go back.

Came in and sat at the bar. Tom was the bartender. His recommendations were on point. Every item he recommended was better than the last. He is excellent at the drinks he made. And was extremely helpful with our choices. I don’t think I could ever order Brussels sprouts anywhere else. The burger was delicious and the stuffed portobello was THE BEST I have ever had. I can’t wait to come back.

I was really blown away by how amazing this place is! The food has such fresh ingredients and was cooked to perfection. The atmosphere is very welcoming and friendly. Our waiter was very kind and helpful. I genuinely have not had lamb this good before anywhere else. My brother had the pork shank and he loved it. Drinks were great and the bartender was very nice. Overall 10/10 and I can't wait to come back.

Seriously, this place is amazing. King Ave is well kept enclave of culinary gems. Alqueria landed on menu and Epiphany delivered on great experience. We had so much fun trying to decide which of the shareables to order, and the cocktails were well matched. DO NOT SKIP DESSERT. This is a team of professionals and they know how to leave you wanting more. We’ll be back.

The food and staff are excellent! S/O to Tom - a personable bartender, who made my solo dining experience an incredible one! 💕
I ordered the shrimp and grits, Strawberry Blitz cocktail (seasonal, and incredible), and for dessert the Banana tart (seasonal).

Megan with Offline - What a lovely surprise! I hadn’t been to Alqueria, and (embarrassingly) thought it was a new name for the vegetarian restaurant that was in the same location years ago, which I always found to be a bit overpriced. I’m sorry I waited so long! The food was excellent and the portions very generous for the prices, and the servers were very attentive. The crab cakes were particularly impressive, along with the bread service. We will be back soon to try more!

What's not to say. Other than parking this place is perfect. I had a pork belly with warm kimchi and I believe a plum sauce.... OMG TOP TWO OR THREE THINGS.I'VE EVER EATEN IN MY LIFE. my wife had to pull out the bull Whip to keep me from ordering four more. Then the the beef, short ribs and mashed potatoes came out with a side of yeah, green beans and you know, green beans are eh Most of the time, they were really, really well done. I recommend this place ten times out of ten phenomenally well done, and oh, by the way, are server was great too.

Went there for dinner after reading the reviews. We all enjoyed the atmosphere. The drink menu was fun and drinks were good. We enjoyed the appetizers we sampled and the mains we ordered. We left room for dessert and tried the crème brûlée. I don’t recommend desserts. Overall a great experience but can’t recommend dessert.

Was absolutely phenomenal! Beef was cooked to perfection, with a very complimenting sauce. And the most perfectly balanced cake to boot.

Great experience! We went there for the restaurant week and liked everything on the menu. The artichoke was our favorite, hope they gonna put it on permanent menu! We order extra sweet potato fries, they mentioned that it fried twice, but when we ate it's not crispy, but still tastes good. For the main course, pork loin was still too chewy for me.
But overall, I love it. Will go back again. :)
