    Jalapeno Nuggets and Dirty Dip & Bread
    Jason K.

    Summary: A spirited atmosphere with good food, friendly service, and a variety of drinks. Jalapeno Nuggets and Broccolini Bang Bang stood out. Music is a bit loud, but still conversation-supporting. Reservations recommended for prime time. Not a big space, so seating is somewhat limited. On Friday evening I made reservations for four people on Saturday evening at 7pm. We arrived just before and were seated immediately, taking the last table for four available. Inside, the atmosphere was fun and festive for the holidays. Lots of people hanging out and enjoying beverages while talking to the bartender. Everyone seemed happy and lively, and the music was an eclectic mix of genres playing pretty loudly over the soundsystem. We were seated in the corner near the kitchen in a table with high-top chairs. At first, my father-in-law was a little concerned about the chairs because he has a bad back and uses a special pillow to sit on, but these ended up being quite comfortable and he didn't express any complaints after being seated. Soon our server Hayley introduced herself to take our drink orders and answer initial questions. We ended up ordering three large beers and an espresso martini, all of which were enjoyed by their recipients. We also started with the Jalapeno Nuggets and Dirty Dip & Bread appetizers. Neither was super substantial in portion, but both were tasty and well constructed with textures/temperatures. Soon we ordered the rest of our food items including the Pork Belly Pops (overall good, but some chewy chunks) and Broccolini Bang Bang (very tasty and nicely al dente), and my in-laws ordered a chicken wrap with waffle fries (the wrap was quite large, and the fries were surprisingly good). The total came out to around $140, which is reasonable for the portion of food we got with associated quality and freshness. Hayley was very attentive throughout, and we had a good time. My wife and I look forward to coming back again to check out the Happy Hour specials sometime.

    Gorgeous place for cocktails. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Stopped in because the vibe just gravitated us through the doors. Highly recy

    What a fun atmosphere with very enthusiastic staff members. Every dish and drink brought out was accompanied by a resounding cheer of encouragement. It was like the whole meal was a momentous occasion. While I wish they had allowed my hangar and smash to be cooked mediums rare, even at medium was a treat, especially after I just went for it abc poured the sauce atop the steak instead of dipping it. This is a great place with great food and the best servers in the game.

    I really want to like this place but we've been twice and it didn't appeal to my tastes. Their food is good, but I wasn't wild about their cocktail selection ( a little over the top), and the decor seems all over the place. When I first heard about it I was told it was a speakeasy but this is not that. Locals seem to love it.

    In a word...impressed! We wondered in early on a Saturday evening. Probably got there around 4:30pm (no, I'm not that old yet but we had a late breakfast / lunch so...early dinner). Glad we did. It gets busy here early. There's a high energy vibe when you walk in. Music is on the louder side but not club loud. For a speakeasy, you might have to speak louder but that didn't seem to be an issue for anyone inside. Open dining area, lots of tables for two along the wall, a few taller tables for 4 to 6, open bar seating and a large community style seating area right up front by the sidewalk window. Service is spot on - like, lightning right on. We came in, were greeted quickly, told we could pick our own table and were seated right away. In less than a minute, a serve appear with menus and took the time to explain the sharing side of the menu vs. the entree side. Both sides looked great. Lots of fun choices on the menu, alligator, jack fruit, duck, loaded waffle fries, etc. But, they also have "normal" stuff like a burger. We just had to try the alligator and, while to us it didn't taste like chicken, it was good. The creole sauce had a slight kick but was perfect for the dish. Then, like any good Chick-Fil-A lover, we had to get the waffle fries. But they put a twist on it with black beans, queso, guacamole, and a creme sauce. The only thing I didn't like about this was I ran out of waffle fries with some black beans and queso still on the plate. I soaked it up later with the edges of my burger... My wife had the jack fruit enchiladas. We originally asked to add chicken to them as we both prefer meat but the waitress suggested she try it without the chicken as they prepare the jack fruit in a way to mimic chicken. We took her suggestion and she was right! She really enjoyed it and would get it again. Table share and entrees run from $10 to $20, the vibe was fun and we would definitely return. Hope your experience is as good as ours and...enjoy!!!

    I had been following G's build up to their grand opening and was excited to finally check it out in person. From the Italian name and online photos, social postings, that it would be small shareable plates, I was expecting the vibe to be a upscale, local bácaro with some good cicchetti, the Venice-style small bites found during aperitivo, the Italian version of happy hour, with olives, cheeses, salumi, maybe some mini pizzas and of course a pasta or two. My Italian expectations also included the bar program as I have been looking for a good Hugo spritz and some big Tuscan reds. I also thought this was a smart way to differentiate from previous Italian tenants and other Italian places in town. Upon arrival, I loved the vibe, decor, except the TV's on the wall above the dining tables ( see photo) as it kinda ruins the upscale vibe and who is watching them over there - the bartender's? The one's above the bar make more sense and I can let those slide though there are already plenty of places to watch sports/TV's in El Segundo. Happy to see that they expanded the actual bar from previous tenants as I would sit at the bar if by myself or just with one other person. Sat in the orange couch area with a small group of friends, love a good lounge vibe and was promptly greeted, given menu's. Here is where I was disappointed, minus the one star, as nope, nothing Italian about it except one prosecco and the idea of small plates (for the table section on the menu) to share along with larger entrees (for you section on the menu) that our server explained are pretty much shareable was well. Lots of carbs: fried this, bread with that. The server also explained that the bar program is a work in progress, ok I get it, you just opened, no Hugo spritz for me. We ordered from both sides of the menu to share all and all the food was delicious and the mostly California wine list decent, friends who did order cocktails said spot on. No dessert menu currently. In summary: off brand but the food was delicious, it is positioned as Eclectic Fare on the website but not really when looking at other places in town, where it is easy to get many similar items with a TV. Great service and great, upscale, lounge vibe ( minus the dining wall TV's). We did give our server our feedback and she did mention the owner is open to evolving over time. Will return when the back patio opens for the Summer and see if I can enjoy my Hugo spritz with some cicchetti then.

    I will say this place looks amazing and the food and cocktail menu is too. We shared the hanger steak, chicken piccata and black bean salad. All way over what I thought it would be for the price. We also got a rum sour from the cocktail menu, and a lil pick me up old fashion to begin with and I have never had those before anywhere and they were great. Continued with a dirty martini and IPA which was still perfect. Love this place, love the staff too. They are so friendly! Our server Cecily made the experience even better. We will be back and be repeat customers.
