It's now open for brunch earlier than the hours show on Sunday! So try it if you want something a level up from next door's Breakfast Club. Really fresh, nice touches in even the more simple items.

Hector Rodriguez

Updated drink menu is not the easiest to understand but the servers are very knowledgeable and the drinks amazing. Food menu hasn’t changed much but everything we’ve tried is absolutely delicious.

Overall 3 course dinner was very good. Short ribs were incredible! Great service. Would def go back. Only negatives, it was pricey and they can't cook a filet.Filet in picture was supposed to be med.

Jory Dayne

The spiced carrots are a great shareable "small" plate - huge mound of perfectly tender carrots with a smokey Harissa honey sauce and a cool, creamy yogurt sauce to mellow things out.

🌵Andrew Kolikoff🌵

Classy , hip restaurant inside Hotel Palomar. Pretty pricey however exceptional menu and food. Brunch is also spectacular. Oh and, some nice happy hour specials .

Jordan Coleman

Rrreeeaaalllyyy good food! We had the corn appetizer , pickled beet salad , pork belly flat bread and upside down pineapple cake for desert . Great food! We're definitely coming back.

Ricky Sherrill

Went for drinks after work which were well made & served by a great bartender . The food looked great so I want to go back for dinner .

Great décor. Get a table by the big windows for a nice view of downtown. Food was really good and service was nice although they checked in on us sooo many times.

Try the Bacon Wrapped Oysters - So delicious! Bacon wrapped oysters with Meyers lemon & pickled shallots . (via @Foodspotting)

Get the Kentucky Fried Chicken sandwich for lunch , big enough for two! Friendly staff and great hidden lunch spot with a patio overlooking city scape!

Hector Rodriguez

Delicious cocktails . Great ambiance and delicious food prepared with craft.

Try the Boulevardier - I'm a little obsessed with campari right now. This is yummy-whiskey, campari and sweet vermouth . (via @Foodspotting)

This place is amazing. Some of the best food and best service in town . Downtown just keeps getting better!

Such a nice, laid back , classy bar/restaurant. Ordered the New Cuban drink. So delicious!! The bartender is amazing!! My new fav place!

Kyle Morris

Tater tots and deviled eggs half orders plenty of food for two to start and are awesome! Kentucky fried quail was insanely good!

Taylor Ortlieb

Get a drink ticket from the front desk, or at least take advantage of the free wine for guests in the evenings.

Alice Ferris

Try the Kale Salad - Lacinato kale , pomegranate seeds , pine nuts and parmesan with a lemon vinaigrette . (via @Foodspotting)

Chef Stephen Jones ' Ancho Chile Braised Pork Neck , topped with a fried egg is, for now, the best thing on the menu! Read more

Grace K

Try the unlimited mimosas w apricot ! Regular is $10 and unlimited is $13!! Totally worth it!!!!

Grace K

I don't recommend the short ribs . A little fatty, and too tough for my liking. And it was NOT Korean BBQ style short ribs . A true Korean would kno. But cauliflower and flat breads r bomb

Jamie Wagner

Hand crafted cocktails , farm fresh entrees and sides. Friendliest staff .

Jason F

In the area? Visit this spot! Butterscotch popcorn with ancho chile and pulled pork sliders are amazing.

Tony Petrucciani

Awesome mixologists ... ask for something a little different, and you will be impressed!

Alice Ferris

Try the Bacon Wrapped Oysters - Nice bites to start. (via @Foodspotting)

eric bornemann

Decent if unremarkable farm to table fare. Nice festive views during the holidays.

Emily K

The Lawless cocktail is a must. Pineapple upside down cake for dessert will not disappoint.

Alice Ferris

Try the Shishito Peppers - One of my favorites. (via @Foodspotting)

Melissa

Delicious cocktails and the food smells delish. Super crowded and swanky clientele. But it is a Saturday :)

Clara Bayarri

Nice place, the fried chicken was really nice and not greasy at all.

Lo

The Eggs Benedict is amazing! Breakfast bliss!!

Terry Ballard

Try the Summer Smash - great hand crafted cocktail ;)

Karin Crawford

The Fries are amazing. And the drinks are very inventive!

Ty Largo

My prediction: This will be the "Best New Restaurant 2012." Chef Stephen Jones is brilliant.

Axe P

Waitress here is rude! She says all the nice couches r always reserved even when noone is sittin there, saying sthng bout breakfast next morning? Duh, do it after we r gone?? It's not even 11p
