We came here really looking forward to a simple, special New Year’s dinner. The service was kind and the ambiance was great, but the food felt a bit overworked for what it was. Both the steak and the pork chop were buried under heavy sauce and large amounts of garnish, which made it hard to just enjoy the quality of the meat. On top of that, the pork chop was unfortunately quite dry and overcooked, which really took away from the experience. From someone who really loves and appreciates good food, sometimes restraint shows more confidence than complexity. A great cut of meat does not need to be hidden under layers of flavors. It just needs to be cooked well and allowed to shine. Cleaner plating, lighter saucing, and more attention to doneness would make a big difference. For the price point $200, we expected something more focused, balanced, and truly special, especially for New Year’s.
Food, atmosphere, service all amazing! Definitely the place for a meat eater! Portions are large family style. Between 3 guys we got the Pork Chop and the Beef Rib along with 2 sides, mashed potatoes and green beans, and it was plenty of food for the 3 of us.
Fantastic smoked meats and sausages! We’ve been here many times and always enjoy the sausage platter. The sausages are huge, flavorful, and each one comes paired with a great side dish, like elote. The servers were also incredibly friendly with our baby—when we asked for a spoon, they brought out several options without hesitation. There’s plenty of street parking nearby, and they also offer valet.
Yum!!! If you are a lover of smoked meats order the pork chop. It was absolutely incredible. We had a hot link sausage as an appetizer but would come back to do a sampler as a meal because it was so delicious. I'm not usually a fan of beans but these were the best I've had. We had great service and enjoyed the atmosphere. It was our first time here but will be going back again.
Had a great time, wonderful food at a gorgeous place! The food was beautiful and the drinks were beautiful as well loved the sausage platter and the beef tartare honestly might be the star of the night if I may say! Our main dishes and side dishes were wonderful but was a bit salty for me. The server was nice but it felt somewhat not fully organized here and there but again still had a great time and didn't affect the night. I will say the food quality was wonderful and fresh and all the meats were super tender and juicy!! So highly recommend!
