Sharing the mushrooms with my lady, sipping a bit of the Kraken. It doesn't get much better. However, if I was a bit less of a man, I would have tried to make out with the chef . The food was amazing!
Cozy place and one of the few places you can strike up a conversation with the barkeeps if you're looking for something to do
Awesome . Sterling the bartender just invented a great new summer drink called the 'Summer Salad ' & its great. Gin , Strawberries , basil , balsamic reduction , simple syrup...other stuff... Get one.
The Continental is an amazing happy hour spot & their blueberry mojito is the perfect cocktail for a warm summer evening.
Cocktails are great. And the craft fries rock!
For the winter, their tomato bisque and truffled grilled cheese is excellent.
This place it's seriously underrated! They have amazing food & a great drink menu!
Classy but not too classy with good drinks. Staff training must be weird here.

Food was simply underwhelming. Do not order the flat bread. - Ezra Katz
Try the spinach and ricotta pasta, rigatoni cooked al dente, sprinkled with ricotta, tossed with sauteed spinach, then covered in a light marinara. It's earthy but not too hearty, great for lunch. - Juice Magazine
