    Spaghetti and meatballs. There were 3 meat balls before i ate them.
    Angelo A.

    As an 100% Italian from Long Island NY, the spaghetti was shockingly delicious for WA. And the staff is super friendly. Holly the waitress was amazing. (Ps there were 3 meatballs but I started eating before i took the photo.)

    Breakfast pizza!

    We stopped in for brunch and everything was fantastic. The spicy Bloody Mary was easily one of the best I've ever had, and the service was top notch! Not a huge space but wasn't super packed around 10am but it filled up quick! We are excited to go back.

    Pizza

    To begin I am an Italian New Yorker and highly educated in food. It's not bad pizza but lacking. From my only time so far having their pizza here is what I think about my pepperoni pizza: crust light on salt can tell taste wise and structure. Not sure what kind of oven was used but temp is off . With low salt can't review crust. Light on pepperoni. Service was good. Not sure what flour but not chewy like OO and not dark like high gluten. If I was to change one thing would have to do with oven temp since may fix all.

    This was some excellent pizza with a great atmosphere. It is truly a gem in the Garland District's food hat!

The whole atmosphere is dark, cozy, moody, and feels more like a hidden lounge than a typical downtown bar. Between the lighting, music, books, and dramatic cocktail menus, the vibe alone makes the place worth visiting. We tried the espresso martini, Painkiller, and Bloody Verde. The espresso martini was smooth and easy to drink without being overly sweet, and the Painkiller had that creamy tropical flavor that somehow still worked with the darker speakeasy atmosphere. Keeping it honest though, the Bloody Verde just wasn't for me personally. I can still appreciate the creativity behind it, but the flavor combo just didn't match my taste buds. That being said, if you like savory spicy cocktails, you'd probably feel very differently about it. Service was friendly, drinks came out looking great, and the music really tied the whole experience together. Definitely feels like one of Spokane's more unique cocktail spots if you want something moodier and more relaxed.

What we ordered: * Whipped Honey Cornbread: Seared edges, whipped honey butter, and scallions. Honestly addictive. Sweet, buttery, slightly crisp on the outside and soft inside! I just can't stop eating them * Hush Puppies: Served hot and crunchy with Louisiana Come Back sauce. Simple but really well done, especially with this dipping sauce. * Poached Pear Salad: Sweet poached pears, with a nutty flavor from candied pecans and dried cherries. I don't like goat cheese so I just pretend it didn't exist Light but flavorful, with a nice balance of sweet and tangy to pair with 2 heavy dishes above. * Voodoo Pork Chop: My main dish, I was surprised with the huge portion (10oz chop), served with collard greens, creole sauce, and sweet potatoes. Pork was incredibly tender and juicy, a bit salty but this is one of the best ones I've had in a while. It honestly felt like two servings and is definitely shareable. The space is beautiful with eclectic interior design, warm lighting, and a staircase that gives the whole place a nice vibe for dinner. You can take good selfie inside Overall, the experience was great. Good food, generous portions, and a cozy lively atmosphere. Definitely a place I'd come back to!!!!!

The tater tots with the sauce on top were also a standout and something I'd order again without hesitation. That said, the service wasn't the best, especially for a first visit. I had a few questions about the menu and drinks, but our server seemed rushed and a bit annoyed, which made the experience feel less welcoming. Ordering drinks felt a little hurried, and while my husband really enjoyed his, mine were just okay. Overall, the food was great and the atmosphere is worth checking out, but I do wish the service had been a bit more attentive and helpful, especially for someone new to the place.

Everything we tried was done really well. The service was great, laid back and casual. The menu does rotate, so that's something to keep in mind. We came in a little too late to try the mac and cheese, which was a bummer, but the other sandwiches more than made up for it and were absolutely worth it. Overall, such a great spot with an awesome vibe. Easy five stars and definitely a place I'd go back to.
