The…read moretomato soup was very Smokey and sweet, more like a marinara sauce with its thickness than soupiness. The grilled cheese was crispy, buttery, cheesy. The cheese and soup were sooooo good together. The fries were also amazing! I loved the sweetly and salty pork along the cheesy crispy fries.

When we've come with friends or larger groups, the service has been much more mediocre. The first time we visited, one of the waitresses was surprisingly rude when I asked about vegetarian options. All she said was "salad," despite there being multiple salads (2 out of the 3) on the menu, including a Caesar with anchovy and a wedge salad with bacon. Thankfully, another staff member stepped in and was much more helpful and respectful. I'm not sure why vegetarian requests are sometimes treated like an inconvenience or unusual concept. I'm married to a huge meat eater and enjoy going to places he likes, but I do wish vegetarian guests were met with a little more patience and understanding. Especially when I am the one paying the bill. The atmosphere is loud and busy, but they are generally accommodating. For larger parties, they require a credit card to hold the reservation and give a limited grace period, with a fee of around $15 per person for no-shows. I understand why restaurants have policies like this, but it felt a little unfair considering we still had to wait around 15-20 minutes past our reservation time to be seated. If guests are expected to strictly follow time slots, I think the restaurant should also try to hold themselves to those same standards. It also took close to two hours for our food to come out, and we repeatedly had to ask for smaller things like water or hot sauce. I completely understand that larger parties can take longer, but we were a group of seven, which didn't seem unusually large. Overall, the food and atmosphere keep us coming back, but the consistency in service could definitely be improved.

We arrived, sat ourselves, only ones in the restaurant. The servers were so friendly and the food speaks for itself. Our drinks were stiff and delicious and we had fun looking at all the different things on their menu. "Eclectic" certainly describes this place. From rabbit, to elk to bison to kangaroo. We all tried the kangaroo (Aussie frites) albeit chewy, the flavor was good. Everything is fresh and made from scratch, even their ketchup. We all enjoyed our meals, the "kid-cuterie" was adorable and they do have pizza, for those not as adventurous. My elk burger had duck prosciutto, so good. My husband had one of each patty (elk and bison) and the wild boar soup. My new go to when people are visiting or future date nights

Second, Good Food. The food was also good. We had oysters, the bao buns, seafood pasta, etc. I also had a shrimp burger which was very messy, but also delicious. Finally, great service. Well, this is where things fell short. As we walked in, we had 4 adults and 2 kids, under 3. We came in to celebrate my mom's birthday. The hostess took a look at us, and instantly looked irritated. Like ugh where am I going to sit these people. She didn't know where to sit us and asked the manager. She was absolutely rude, didn't even acknowledge our presence and also just looked irritated. My mom asked about a specific larger table and the gal rudely said we keep that for 8 tops. Okay fine. No problem. So they out two - two top tables together and sat us there. Very tight, but we made it work. It just made us feel unwelcome. Even better, right after they sat 4 adults with two kids at the table we requested. Luckily, our waitress Jasmine was WONDERFUL and so kind. She helped turn the evening around and made it less awkward. That's why we kept 4 stars instead of 3.
