I don't even want to tell anyone because I want this to be my secret happy hour spot, but their onion rings are perfection -- not too thick, not too thin, not too greasy, battered, and you won't end up with a hollow batter shell after one bite. The beet salad is delicious too. I go back again and again for those two things alone.

Huh. They must have prepared their dishes to be especially tasty and photogenic when you went there, Chris, because my experience from about a month prior was the polar opposite of yours. I was served an unappealingly soggy and flavorless "Cajun" chicken sandwich that appeared to be of the frozen, breaded chicken breast from Fred Meyer variety, and that was garnished with equally limp pickle slices, of all things. (pickles and breaded chicken breasts? really?)

My girlfriend had that same Mac n' Cheese that you decry as inadequate - and to add insult to that injury, hers was bone cold when served, like it had literally been scooped out of a refrigerated container and tossed into a bowl.

Not sure if we'll be back to this place, despite your somewhat generous review.

I'm concerned this place is going to be the next Lardo, with hordes of lumpy suburbanites who can't park safely and walk right into the street on grease-filled highs. *Splat*
