Really anticipated this meal and it lived up to the hype. I didn't get a pic of our entree, Seoul Food, but that was our favorite thing! Full of flavor. Our waitress, Gabby, was super high energy and really happy to be there. We found out it was her fifth day on the job and she is meant to be in hospitality. Lights up the room, very bubbly. Will definitely be back. read more

Very cute vibe and drinks were fun, even the nonalcoholic ones. The food was hit or miss, we loved the edamame and short ribs. The chicken and beef roll were okay. I think this is a great spot for a drink and light bite, maybe not a full dinner. read more

Had an absolutely, life changing experience here. No Alan was our server and she was incredible! We started with the flavored ice ball old fashioned as long as your ice ball has t melted all the way u get refills for half the price! We had the charcuterie bread board and broccoli salad which was my favorite starter/salad of all time! We also got the delicious bacon wrapped dates and for main course the perfect sirloin and halibut. The desert was the churro donuts a can't miss. Awesome experience and ambience we'll be back!! read more

Upscale and trendy ambiance, perfect for dates (I came for a work dinner though). We sat at the booth in the back, which is a perfect place to observe the rest of the restaurant. Service was great. I don't think there's ever a time where my water glass wasn't full. Some of the dishes are great and some are just meh. We basically almost ordered everything in the menu except the pad thai and some of the veggie dishes. I think the appetizers and the snacks are better than the main dishes. The ones I really liked: Seoul food, lamb meatballs, fried brussel sprouts, tiger apricots, and the churros donuts I'd definitely come back for their happy hour! read more

Another great dinner in Austin! Really loved this one. Excellent small plates. Started with the Tiger Apricots - bacon wrapped and served with a chipotle honey mascarpone. These were the perfect sweet and savory match up. A very nice bite. Next up were the Mash Ups - I loved these this mashed potato balls. I mean, I LOVE mashed potatoes so not really surprised. Soft and smooshy inside; crispy and light on the outside. Lovely balance of texture. Flavors are "chef selection" so it changes all the time. You get 3 of these balls. Rillette & Focaccia - very good, but served cool, FYI. Toasty focaccia with chicken and chorizo rillette and a selection of toppings - candied pecans, whole grain mustard, pickled onion and avocado purée. Together, this was a fantastic bite. Definitely shareable. On to (our) main meals! Hubby chose the Seoul Food - kimchi grits with shrimp, Korean BBQ butter, and fried soft boiled egg. The grits were definitely pronounced with kimchi flavor. All the components went very well together. He really enjoyed this one. I had the Fungus Among Us, a hefty dish for two or three. But it was allllll for me! This was a very good mushroom risotto. For dessert, we split the German Chocolate Mousse, a deconstructed version. Chocolate mousse with coconut macaroons on the side, with ice cream and little chocolate bits. Very nice and presented loverly. We had a great server, super friendly and sweet. Loved the atmosphere of this place. Felt almost speakeasy-ish but without the secret. A great menu with lots of cool sounding dishes. Would come back again and again to try more things. Recommend! read more

A unique and eclectic dining experience that was a whole lot better than I was expecting. The service was outstanding and pragmatic and the recommendations from our waiter were awesome. Pad Thai One of my favorite dishes although it's very different to what you might expect. The noodles are all vegetables making it a lower carb alternative (and it's completely vegan). Calabacitas Rellenas This dish is so weird! But weird in a good way. Such an interesting combination of textures and flavors. I would have loved the zucchini to be a little less Al dente. Charred Edamame Some of the best Charred Edamame I've had, and that's a big call given how prevalent this is becoming on menus. The "pop rocks" style salt was an incredibly novel addition to the dish. Chocolate Torte The torte was very thick, not cakey at all, more like a fudge. It was presenter beautifully and the sorbet was delicious. Top tip: When ordering the frozen ball cocktails, remove the vodka and just have the sparkling wine! read more

Awesome overall dining experience! Located in downtown Austin where many gastropubs are located. This establishment has unique cocktails, beers & wine in addition to new American fusion tapas small plate. We had a group of 5, so we were able to order a variety to share. George, our wait staff was young and earnest, so he made our dining experience even more interesting! He gave us a run down of their order recommendations. Their menu is adventurous and curious with interesting names and ingredients. They turned out to be delicious and exciting! "Dancing in the street" was the kitchen feature dish with sweet corn & caramelized onion ravioli in miso corn purée, crispy shallots, vegan Parmesan, veganaise and bonito flakes. The charred edamame has Chile oil, salt trio and pop rocks which was amazing! The Seoul Food has grilled shrimp, BBQ butter, kimchi grits with fried soft egg. Just the Halibut has pistachio crusted halibut, blood orange beurre blanc, charred butter lettuce, ube tuile. Fungus among us - local mushroom and black truffle risotto, crispy shallot, were so yummy. Interesting farm to table new concept American modern dishes. As for cocktails, the exclusive fruit juice in a big ice ball with liquor, the ice ball will last an hour or so to melt. Refill the liquor for a fraction cost. We ordered 8 entrees for 5 people and sampled a few bites each. The tapas plate seems small portion, but we were full and no room for dessert. It was quite a gastropub dining experience for us first hand. We would love to come back again! read more

This hidden gem is exquisite. Every dish is creative and flavorful, delighting the most selective and refined palates equally. The ambience is equally sexy and quaint. The servers quietly wisp in and out refilling drinks and replacing plates of the next course with ninja-like subtlety. Do not miss out on this experience whether it's for date night, hanging with pals, or impressing out of town guests. Bravo, Swift's Attic. read more

We have eaten there twice before & loved it - they used to have great calamari. That was 3 years ago - now we were underwhelmed. Great atmosphere- service was good. Fried squid was awful- salt & pepper shrimp delicious but 6 medium shrimp for $26 - bacon wrapped apricot was very good but 5 small bites - Brussel sprouts fair & only large portion - $135 later not satisfied. We marked off our list that we recommend for others. Too bad - cute restaurant. Only takes one bad expensive meal to end our desire to try again- too many great restaurants in Austin. read more

We went here to try the Austin restaurant week lineup and it was delicious! The dinner consisted of 4 courses: sesame shishito peppers, broccoli salad with kale, pomegranate, cashews, and bacon, shrimp and grits with a gigantic fried soft boiled egg, and a churro donut with strawberry jam and dulce de lèche ice cream. We also got a bottle of the Nebbiolo which was awesome. Only downside was that we were a little cramped at our table, but I'm glad they were able to accommodate 7 of us. read more

Swift's Attic - Blistered shishitos with peppery pop rocks sea salt - New American Near Me - Austin, Texas

OMG, the food was fantastic! The food comes in small sharable portions for 2-3 people, depending on the appetite. We had about 4-5 entrees, and they were ALL fantastic. The waitress was extra nice and accommodating. She brought in an extra chair as the table was a booth/chair setup for two. The booth made me feel like a 5-year-old eating at the big boy table without a booster seat. I simply mentioned it to the waitress, and she raced a regular chair over. Extra Nice!!! Good food, atmosphere, and waitress. Can't ask for more!! read more

Interesting location, where they share the same entrance door as 2 other places. Interior was fun and flirty. Waiter told us it was tapas style and we should order about 4-5 dishes between the 2 of us. We definitely left super full and could've been happy with 3 dishes. 10/10 - One of my favorite drinks on my Austin trip! Get their GBD (?) Ice ball drink! It was unique with a frozen juice ice ball and a kick of spice. 8/10 - broccoli salad. The kale pieces were big, so it was a bit rough to chew. But the ingredients were fresh and love how the dressing wasn't overwhelming. 9/10 - lipstick on a pig. The meat was tender and flavorful. 7/10 - Texas fight. Flavorful but wish there was more than just a couple pieces of sausage, shrimp, and zucchini. The sausage had melted cheese inside of it ... a delicious surprise. 10/10 - don't call me chicken. Best dish of the night with the perfect sauce pairing and the chicken cooked to perfection. Crispy skin and juicy meat. Yum. The only issue is that it seemed like the staff was a bit disorganized. There was no communication, as the waiter and bus boy came by to give the same utensils, ask if we want the dessert menu twice, ask our neighboring table if they want a to-go box twice, ask us if we want the drink menu again twice, etc. I guess better overattentive than none, right? read more

Back in 2015 when Swift's Attic aired on the Bravo TV show for Best New Restaurant, I had to definitely test it out since it is located in Austin. Hard to believe its already been 5 years since then and they still produce an all around great experience. Swift's Attic is located on Congress street on the second floor in one of Austin's many historic buildings. The design and style is kind of like an attic, a bit eclectic and hipster. The food predominately is small to medium size eclectic and very tasty plates which goes well with their similarly eclectic cocktail menu. What I also love about this place is they have a great happy hour food and drink menu. With regard to their food, some great dishes you have to try out are the squid fries, thai lettuce wraps, ceviche power bowl, and for sure they have a top notch burger. Service has always been very good and as competitive Austin is in the restaurant scene, this place always gets a visit from me. read more

This is one of our favorite spots for drinks and appetizers before we go listen to music at the Elephant Room as it is in the same building on the 3rd floor. The Tiger Apricots are the best. I'm not a huge fan of apricots, but these are so worth the trip. Wrapped in bacon accompanied by a chipotle honey sauce - amazing! read more

Swift's Attic - Tiger Apricots - New American Near Me - Austin, Texas

Relaxed, overlooked bar/restaurant in the heart of the city on Congress in downtown. Since arriving in Austin last year, I've been using a combination of Yelp and word of mouth to get ideas of food places to check out in the city. I was shocked when I was scouring this area of the city and found this place and realized I'd never heard of it. After seeing some of the photos on here, I decided to give it a try. The food overall here was pretty good; it's I think generally to be considered "New American," but there are many fusion items on the menu (e.g., we had their version of pad Thai, which was just sort of OK). There is one sort of unique gimmick on the menu that is totally worth getting: the ice balls. Basically they take these flavored ice balls in a rocks glass and pour a liquor over it. As the ice melts, it becomes a cocktail. In my case, I had what was equivalent to an Old Fashioned and it was pretty tasty and kind of a fun experience to poke at the ice ball as it melted. Our servers were quite attentive for our meal and service was pretty quick. Definitely worth a try! read more

Organized a large business dinner here while in Austin. The food was excellent and the staff were able to easily substitute dishes into the pre-set menu for dietary restrictions within our group. The only downside was that the servers kept taking plates off the table that were only half empty which was unfortunate as people tend to share at business dinners and we weren't finished with those dishes. read more

Swift's Attic - Papi churro - New American Near Me - Austin, Texas

See all

This place has a lot of character with a rustic esthetic featuring exposed brick walls, vibrant bright blue wallpaper, elegant lighting with a large chandelier, and what I believe may have been reclaimed wood painted black. I would describe the vibe here as unpretentious, but with plenty of frills. This place came recommended as cool, and it certainly is with birds on kitschy plateware and a playlist featuring old school hip-hop and other early 90s hits like Cyprus Hill. The drink list is pretty substantial featuring a large variety of options, some with prices and some without. We found the whiskey list and saw a vast sea of options that we have never been able to find so we were excited. After a few visits to our table, we asked for some help with picking whiskey, and one of the bar managers came over to ask extensive questions to figure out our pallets. I greatly appreciated this, because it shows someone who really knows their products. He curated a custom flight for me featuring 3 different versions of Blood Oath whiskey and offered a pour for my girlfriend to pair with our meal. Everything is intended to be to sharable, which we love, so we were onboard. We were recommended to order 3-5 items including dessert, so we ordered 4 to split the difference. First was the How We Roll with raw, marinated sirloin, kimchi rice, and a sauce made of red miso and sesame. Very tasty and pretty unique! Reminded me of one of my favorite items from a Morimoto restaurant. Following was the Tiger Apricots wrapped in bacon, with a cilantro emulsion and chipotle honey mascarpone. Smokey, sweet, nutty, and savory. Absolutely perfect and a nice twist on bacon wrapped dates. Next we moved into the broccoli crunch salad with pomegranate, red cabbage, bacon, kale and a caramelized shallot vinaigrette. Flavor wise, it was delicious, but was sadly a little disappointing. The broccoli was in whole pieces and was a little too large to eat effectively. We both would have preferred if the broccoli was chopped, diced or even hit in a blender so the texture was more conducive to the salad. Last we got the Seoul Food with grilled gulf shrimp, Korean BBQ butter, kimchi grits, bacon and a fried softboiled egg. I loved everything about this dish, especially the kimchi grits, except for the egg (texturally a little off-putting) and the excessive use of bacon on a lot of the menu. We saw the churro dessert and knew we wanted it. Once it arrived, we found that the churros (in a donut shape) were a little doughy and slightly undercooked, accompanied by a nondescript ice cream flavor and cinnamon toast crumble that was essentially cinnamon sugar in a large, crystallized form. We heard the table next to us saying that they thought the crumble was pop rocks, but the effect was lost on me. The plate it was served on was flat, so attempting to get any ingredient beyond the churro meant pushing it around the plate until it falls off the edge. It was fairly tasty, but the execution could have been better. We ordered a few more whiskeys, and asked for the check. The lack of prices on some items became apparent, because the sticker shock would have deterred us from racking up $100 per person. Don't get me wrong, this place is cool, trendy, and interesting. However, I would have appreciated transparency within pricing a little bit more than the current approach. Would I come back here again? Sure! Would I be as adventurous with the drink options next time? Probably not. Still definitely worth the experience! read more

We came to Swifts Attic for happy hour/dinner. Overall the food was good but the portion sizes were very small for a large price tag. The mashed potatoes balls were very good but for $4/ball it is not worth it. The charred edamame was cool. Never had it where you dip it in salt/pop rocks. I liked it. The drinks were good - good prices on happy hour but not on happy hour pricey. The tiger apricot appetizer was okay, I wouldn't get it again. Kale Cesar was worth the price tag because it was very large, I would have liked more dressing though, it was dry. And lastly the Waygu was yummy, but the entire dish was extremely salty and the broccolini was inedible. It was saturated in lemon and almost tasted like it was dipped in vinegar and salt. We only spent $112 pre tip which isn't terrible but left the restaurant still hungry. It's a cute place and the service was phenomenal- such nice staff but I would only go back for a drink at the bar. Pros: exceptional staff, happy hour, atmosphere Cons: prices, small portions, salty read more

Delicious delicious food! Swift's Attic really impressed me with how cute this place is and how great the food is. We had a business team dinner here (8 people), ordered several bottles of red wine, a bunch of appetizers and several dishes of seafood to share, and had a great time. Every single dish we had was so good. Sweet Pepper Burrata: Is this heaven? It's super soft and melty. I love that it's served with toast. The pieces of toast are not crunchy or completely soft. It's perfectly crunchy soft if it makes sense. Brussel Sprouts: Simply flavorful. We had two orders and still wanted more, so we had to order more. Squid Fries: They're sticks of calamari. Yummy! Charred Edamame: This place takes edamame to the next level. The edamame is charred nicely, tossed in chili oil for a good kick of heat, and served with POP ROCK. It has the nice balance of salty and sweet and popping in your mouth. Surprisingly delicious! Whoever thinks of this dish is a genius! Blistered Shishitos: Perfectly charred. The dipping sauce is such a great match. Seared Scallops: Amazing! It's perfectly cooked. I feel like Gordon Ramsey would definitely approve it if this dish was made on Hell's Kitchen. Seoul Food: The shrimp is very flavorful. It's a beautiful marriage with kimchi grits and bacon bits mixed inside the grits. Tender Belly Farms Pork Cheeks: Pork cheeks are cooked until it's super tender. It's served with sourdough toast, fig jam, and mustard. Get a piece of toast, spread some fig jam and mustard on it, scoop a piece of pork cheeks and put on the toast. It'll knock your socks off! Korean BBQ Flank Steak: This dish is decent. It's not really special to me. We just needed some protein from meat, so we just went with it. Desserts: Chocolate Fig Tart and Maple Custard. These two are so good!!!! Maple custard just melts in your mouth and it's not overly sweet. Nicely served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Chocolate fig tart is rich, but the fig jam and pieces balance it out. Interior: Very nice decoration. I want to live here! Staff: Our servers were Mike and Grant. They provided us fantastic service. Very personable, friendly, and helpful. Our glasses were always filled with wine and water without us asking. They were always around when we needed to place extra orders. Food also came out very fast. Pricing: Not cheap but not too expensive. For a group of 8 ordering a few red wine bottles, a bunch of appetizers, main dishes, and desserts to share, our check came out to be $710 and gratuity was already included. Overall, we had a great time. Highly recommend Swift's Attic! read more

This is the CUTEST gastropub, lowkey gives supper club/speakeasy vibes! You go upstairs (to the attic part!) and it has a nice attic setup. We came for my baby sister's early birthday dinner!

Food: we ordered fried brussel sprouts, broccoli crunch salad, dont call me chicken, boom bap, and pae yay yuh. The chicken and brussel sprouts were a table favorite. The wagyu was cooked perfectly but the table didnt like the after taste of the fried paella. Overall we had a great time and agreed we'll all be back!

So...the last time I was in town I wanted to come here and was not able to try it out because the restaurant was in the midst of some sort of renovation at the time. I am SO GLAD I got to come back. What a WONDERFUL meal. For starters I sampled one of their specialty Ice Ball Cocktails - starting with an Old Fashioned. The TWIST to all of this is that all of the ingredients to the Old fashioned are frozen into a ball - which is then dropped into the bourbon of choice so - as the ice ball melts the flavor slowly infuses into the bourbon. So as it chills, it's flavor profile rises and there is no watering down from ordinary ice cubes. Brilliant! My first course was the "Sweet Pot" - a mixture of sweet potato (of course) tomato curry, coconut curry, Brussels Sprouts Leaves, spicy peanut, fried onion, and other magic. The flavor combination was just MAGNIFICENT. I took my time because you just don't get dishes like this all the time. Wow. Next was the "Char Siu Pork Belly" with orange purée, crispy bao bun, radishes, Sprouts and Serrano Peopers (lightly added). Once again the flavor combinations were delightfully complex without any of them being overpowering (not even the peppers). We were offered some delicious sounding dessert selections that - sadly - had to be turned down. All the more reason to return. The food alone makes this place a HIT - you could serve this under an overpass and no one would notice the setting. It's THAT good people. Throw in a terrific interior design that is intimate and inviting and you've got my new favorite place in Austin. Don't even think about NOT coming here...... read more

You know you're living your best life and doing all the things, but then you have kids and though they're a great joy, you never get to go do things that you want to do anymore? Well the stars fully aligned this week and hubs and I somehow, miraculously, ended up with ONE child free night in exotic Austin (we're from North Tx). Hubs says pick a restaurant and we'll go wherever you want. Cue instant panic of picking the wrong restaurant, I mean it's freaking Austin, there are so many amazing places to choose from, pick the wrong one and this magical night is wasted, right?!? Y'all! I picked the RIGHT restaurant! We had a little trouble finding the place since it's like one unassuming door on the side of a building that leads to, like, three different businesses, but we found it eventually and ascended to Swift's Attic, which is aptly named because it feels a little attic-ish, but in a good way, a cool, swanky, grandpa runs a hidden speak-easy kinda way. The ceiling had rafters and a skylight and was lit by some cool antique lights and funky chandeliers. It was dark, but in a cozy way that we could still read our menus. I knew I had scored when hubs read the drink menu. He was pretty excited, said it was the best collection he'd seen and was really excited about some rare Old Forrester birthday bourbon that is apparently really hard to find. He order the bar pick bourbon flight and said it was stellar. The bartender came over to the table to educate him about the three bourbons in the flight which I thought was great! I ordered an ice ball old fashioned which was excellent too. We ordered tiger apricots and charred edamame to start with and both were stellar! The tiger apricots were incredible, the sauce was (chef's kiss)! The charred edamame came soaked in chili oil (not spicy) and with a mixture of a couple different kinds of salt and unflavored pop rocks, which was fun to assemble and felt like jazz hands in my mouth (you know what I mean!). Then we got the fried Brussels sprouts, which were really good, but I've also had similarly prepared Brussels sprouts other places. We also ordered a Swift Kick in the Chicken, which was excellent. I really liked the truffle caviar. We got a Seoul Food which was also good, but maybe my least favorite of all the dishes we ordered. We finished with The Dude Abides dessert which was automatic for the Big Lebowski reference even if I didn't even know what it was. OMG it was so good a literal tear escaped my eye! The candied kumquats were like a friendly little kick in the face, but in a good way ok? Service was really good, no complaints at all about this meal! We left feeling very full and very happy! I'd highly recommend. read more

Came here with a group of 9 fifteen minutes before kitchen closing and staff were EXTREMELY accommodating and kept on making food for us! We ordered many dishes, including the chicken entree, two Seoul Foods, Porkie Pie, a How We Roll and another Porkie Pie. Preliminary notes: Fried Brussels Sprouts ($11) - 5/5 Delicious! One of the best Brussels sprouts dishes I've tasted, and there's so much goodness in it! Just this dish alone filled me up -- I'm not a vegetarian by any means, but this is a tremendous treat! Porkie Pie ($25) - 3.5/5 - VERY salty (for my tastes). Others in the group enjoyed it so much they ordered another one. I recall some of the other meat dishes being a bit pricey relative to the amount of food. Some guys in our party got a drink and a bit more than one entree to fill them up. Ambience - 4.6/5 -- dimly lit and quiet, dignified, the group of us felt like a medieval gathering, like warriors about a feast Service - 4.8/5 -- service was excellent! I also nitpick fancier places with lukewarm water: the lukewarm water seemed the same temperature as the other water, and we kinda gave up on that. Quality - 4.4/5 Venue - 4/5 -- as a gastropub, most dishes are somewhat expensive, but the Brussels sprouts is singularly amazing. Overall - 4.4/5 read more

Five stars. A lot of places can execute great food and ambiance, but where Swift's Attic stands out is where they went above and beyond to make me feel welcome despite having the world's most annoying food intolerance. I am intolerant to garlic and onion, and even though I always note it in Opentable and Resy, the vast majority of restaurants don't do anything different ahead of time. My friend arrived ahead of me, and as soon as she was seated, the manager came to tell her what my options were given by food intolerance. Usually I have to ask the waitstaff myself, then they check with the kitchen, and it's several rounds of back and forth before I can place my order. But Swift's Attic made it so easy. The chicken and potatoes that they suggested for me was perfect, delicious, and juicy. I will say that the New Fashioned cocktail was not that good though - it tasted a bit like cough syrup. Then what really blew me away was when we were done with our meal, our waitress came to the table with a notepad and asked me what I usually cook for myself at home, "Because we want to be prepared the next time you come." That was so, so thoughtful and touching, and I will definitely be back. read more

This place was just amazing! The vibe was ALRIGHT! Service was attentive and on point.

I shared the evening with co workers and we had a great time! 10 out of 10 would recommend! read more

First time dining at this restaurant and was very happy with the experience. The food was great, all freshly made and made to share with everyone at the table. Small bites for everyone to share and enjoy. We had a pleasant experience with our hostess and with your waitress. Water was refilled constantly, food was brought out quickly and empty plates were taken away. The ambiance was quiet, romantic, and super small. It's made for small groups of friends or a special couples time. Would greatly recommend heading to this location for a date. read more

(11/5/22 Visit) We has a Bachelorette Celebration here with a party of 10 and had an amazing dining experience. The food and service was phenomenal and love the decor. We ordered all our dishes to share, and we all raved about everything. We had a couple of vegetarians in our group and there was a good variety for them. The presentation of the food is beautiful and the names of the dishes are creative and fun. One favorite was "Seoul Food" which was shrimp in a bbq butter, kimchi grits and a fried soft boiled egg. When you break into that egg and yolk comes out, amazing! Also really enjoyed "Just for the Halibut"- pistachio crusted halibut, topped with an Ube tuile. It had charred butter lettuce which i have never had, and liked it with the pistachio green goddess dressing. The Carrots Al Pastor were delicious and served so pretty! The food, along with the cool cocktails and whole hip ambiance made our dinner spectacular. I highly recommend! Definitely at the top of my list in Austin. read more

Honestly my favorite place during our trip!! We stopped by for their Sunday Brunch and made a reservation beforehand on their website. We were surprised that it wasn't that busy though when we went at 12:15. The restaurant is located upstairs above the elephant room. It is super cute and the servers are really nice. The first thing I noticed was their Bloody Mary bar: it is completely stocked with different kinds of toppings from bacon to banana peppers!! I'm not a fan boozy tomato juice but I definitely saw people going crazy! We ordered the green eggs Benedict, the carnitas huevos rancheros, and the custard French toast. The serving sizes were perfect: we gobbled everything up and did not leave any extras for leftovers! The Benedict definitely needed some hot sauce, but everything else was perfect. I personally loved the custard French toast because it wasn't too sweet and it was a great dish to share. And the huevos rancheros with the salsa on the bottom was perfect! Would high recommend this restaurant! read more

Very sub par. Our table ordered the pork, pad thai, steak roll, and chicken dishes. I got to try the first three and did not think any of them were very good or special. The people we were with loved the chicken dish though. They said the chicken was very moist. Portion sizes were also tiny. I understand the dishes are meant for sharing but there should be more for those kinds of prices. Will not be going back. read more
