First time and I was really pleased with our meal and the ambience. The expensive cocktails were lovely. Highly recommend the honey crisp sour. We had the French dip and the short rib sandwich sandwiches and they were delicious. The ciabatta rolls were just perfect for the sandwiches. The Shishido peppers, mushrooms, and cheese on the short rib sandwich were delicious. All of the wait staff were so friendly and responsive. Have to say the absolute best french fries I have ever had in my life - anywhere! Will come back.

There was a BIG football game and the place was packed. I expect cheering etc. It was still a great place for two people to speak at normal tone in a booth sitting across from each other.
