Reservations recommended for this place, where most of the seating is on an enclosed back patio. Another Susan Feniger delight, this is down-home fare with an upscale/global twist. I enjoyed the chicken and waffle croquettes, the shrimp and grits entree and a side of crispy brussels sprouts with lemon and whipped goat cheese. It was all delicious, including the cast-iron baked cookie dessert.

Wow. What a find. Food is delicious. Pizza starter is a must. Great draft beer selection. Can get crowded early but the food and service is top shelf.

I recently moved to the area and this place is just a few blocks away. Happy to say, it's become one of my neighborhood joints. I typically stick with the small plates since they're great to share with my significant other. Our favorites so far have been the fried oysters, the chicken and waffle croquettes, the spinach pierogi, the pumpkin ravioli and of course, the kaya toast. I'm all about the kaya toast and we've been known to get two orders on occasion. Also, and to pretend like we're being healthy, we'll order something green, such as the (crispy) brussels sprouts or the house salad.



They have a terrific drink menu with cocktails that are too difficult or time consuming for me to make at home, (which is what I look for in a drink list). I can make my own, great old fashioned. I like trying a new drink every time I go. They also have a nice wine list when I'm in the mood for a glass.



The service has always been great and the staff has always been friendly. I would recommend making a reservation before going since seating fills up pretty fast. Otherwise, get there once they open for dinner, like we usually do, and seating shouldn't be an issue.
