Offerings show imagination and good use of local ingredients with a southern accent. Staff seemed like they knew every dish well and described certain ones futher just to make sure the customers knew what they were getting. I also liked the industrial location although I can't explain why. Recommend - farm egg in celery cream, fried oysters (b/c of the dipping sauce) and pork cheeks. Kick start the meal with a Yonkers & 47th.
The menu is creative and inviting, certainly something for everyone. It has a great southern influence to it. I think it was a little over hyped for me though. A bit too oily/greasy and just not as clean a set of flavors as I'd like. It's still worth a visit with good food with good flavor profiles, and I'll give the cooking another shot to prove me wrong. Better alternatives for now though. Some people like the decor, not my taste personally.
Food is straight forward but tasty. Rabbit was filling and flavorful. The quail was virtually raw on first presentation, but after another go was fine, but nothing special. An appetizer of feta and vegetables was unique. Service was quite variable. The wine steward was knowledgeable & fun part of the experience. We unfortunately drew Cloris Leachman from Young Frankenstein who meant well but ranged from stoic to rude to annoying. Nice wines
We had lunch here, it was delicious. My wife, daughter and myself. The burger was great, the humus appetizer was super. All fresh and very nicely done. Served properly and nice follow up. They need to teach the staff to loosen up a bit. Highly recommend and would return in the future
We had a fantastic meal and great service from a knowledgable staff and world class bartender
