Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Eric Bost

MICHELIN Plate2022

From the OpenTable editors: This massive open-flame restaurant charmed diners with fire pits, a wall decorated with camping gear, and warm communal vibes when it opened in 2016. It still has powerhouse status thanks to an excellent craft cocktail program and seasonal wood-fired masterpieces, which could include fire-roasted octopus with green harissa or smoked coffee-rubbed brisket.

A teeny bit too noisy and close to other tables to be really comfy for a date night but the experience of the food makes up for it.

Disappointing. The menu online isn’t the menu. Far too expensive to sit at uncomfortable wooden picnic tables on benches. The ribeye was delicious and service was good, but the s’mores were nearly inedible. Won’t be returning.
