    We enjoyed the hot honey salmon and the vegan mac n cheese. The roasted beet salad was excellent! We learned pudino is Italian for pudding, also recommended.

    I'm only giving everything a middle rating because I ended up walking out. I understand that it's restaurant week and it busier than usual, but it seemed like nobody knew it was restaurant week. I checked into my reservation 10 minutes early. There were no tables available for my reservation so I waited at the bar. 15 minutes passed by, nobody offered me water (after they looked at me a number of times) or anything. I understand if they were short staffed, not on them; however, if I couldn't get a glass of water waiting at the bar for my table past 15 minutes, it was a sign that I needed to roll. Again, not sure what the malfunction was . It happens. I ended up at Folklore, try that spot out!

    We went before a show that was at the venue there. Food was excellent. We got the butcher burger and the chicken sandwich, split both. We were sat upstairs which was very cozy and comfortable. There was only one server for the whole floor, which I did feel like she was pulled in a lot of directions… not her fault though.
