"The location was in the industrial area and on the back of a strip mall, kind of sketchy but it’s surprisingly popular. We tried a couple recommended dishes, and they turned out well. The meal was slightly greasy to my preference and risotto is not very impressive. Overall great experience, price on the higher end and would my one time only visit."

"Excellent! Charlie was a really good waiter. Was friendly without overdoing it and was right there when needed. Started with the Masa Crisp which had some amazing guacamole and salsa. Next we moved onto the tempura shrimp taco which was so crunchy and tasty that I could of eaten another plate full. The jalapeños are fried like the shrimp and almost end up sweet. Next was the chicken Tinga which was my husband’s favorite. A little heat and tender chicken combine for a tasty tostada. We also tried the pork ribs in the tamarind sauce. These were good, but we both preferred the other items we had much better. The carrot purée was outstanding though. It was like eating carrot air. Last thing I wanted to mention are the drinks. Tried two the heartbreaker and the Dani and both were delicious. My husband had the five suns and really enjoyed that one also. The way the drinks are presented is really special also. Lastly at Charlie’s recommendation we tried the churros....OMG you must try these. Warm churro with homemade caramel and dulce de leche cream. So good!!!"

"I visited here with my toddler daughter for a quick snack and feel like I found a hidden gem. We tried their blueberry muffin. It was light and fluffy and not too sweet. Packed to the brim with blueberries too. I also got a small latte. In all the total came out to under $7, which is what a latte alone would cost you most places. I will definitely be back and I recommend people give this place a chance if you?re looking for a local coffee shop to support."

"If you haven 't been... go. If you 've been once... go again. It 's different and better every time. The cocktail lounge is cool, hip and funky without being pretentious. The team is knowledgeable, friendly, and beyond talented in their ability to match a cocktail to your particular tastes (e.g. You know what I feel like? ... The cocktails? Visiting multiple times is a must so you can try each of the offerings on their menu (which changes periodically . Each offering on the menu is remarkably complex, layered, and accessible. Every cocktail begins with one or more of their spirits, all of which are crafted onsite in gleaming copper and stainless steel at the attached distillery. They are mixed in front of you with fresh juices, teas, and bitters (again, all made onsite . I have been a regular, and I always have a little anxiety when the menu changes, and I have to say goodbye to old favorites. It usually takes no more than one or two visits to fall in love with the new, thematic offerings. Take some time, soak up the ambiance, chat with your bartender, nibble on a charcuterie board. Don 't leave without buying a bottle to take with you. The whiskey is beyond compare and the gins (all three of them! are sublime. As the weather grows chilly, the German herbal liqueurs are perfect in front of the fire. I keep a stock of The Pfeffersack and Pfefferminz as thank yous and gifts for friends. For those special people, a bottle of Rabbit in the Rye (pour an ounce and breathe deeply all is well . Pro tip, the bottles themselves are a work of art and make a great vase or a vessel for olive oil or home made maple syrup. So. If you 're looking for a great first date destination, or a refuge to treat yourself and let the stress melt off with a quick snack and a favorite craft cocktail, this is the place. You will not find anything like it in the cities. Why are you wasting your time reading this review. Enter the address in your google maps and jump in the car. If you see me at the bar, I 'll buy you a pour. Price per person: $30–50 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes: Charcuterie Board, Rabbit in the Rye, Chocolate Spirit Pairing, Flash Grilled Salmon"

"As usual, service was outstanding. Food was definitely below par, especially for the prices attached to them. One guest at our table ordered salmon medium rare, and it was delivered more like medium well. Walleye appeared to be deep fried and not sautéed and held a great deal of excess oil, which was not appetizing, nor aesthetically pleasing to look at when delivered. The restaurant is far too loud, but on a positive note, it was full of fun energy"
