Came in today to try some of the drinks and they were phenomenal. Axel did a wonderful job of introducing the drinks and ingredients (and I learned they created them)! I got the London Calling which was a beautiful purple drink. It came with a marshmallow with two flavors !! It was such a creative and unique drink (and did I mention beautiful?). I'll need to come back and try more of Axel's creations
My friends got some non-alcoholic drinks which I also tried. The Peaches & Spice had a yummy chamoy rim that complimented the drink for a fruity, but refined combo. The dirty martini was also customized to my friend's taste (extra olives haha). And the Lo Que Paso a Hawaii's caramelized coconut water was something that hadn't ever had before and realized I needed more of. Thanks for some of the best cocktails/mocktails I've had in a long time!
I also tried the Dovetail Burger which hit all the savory notes I wanted and came with a huge side of fries. Yum yum yumm

Rating is for the bartender, Axol, who is incredible! They make super interesting and unique cocktails and mocktails, featuring in-house fermented and preserved ingredients, even some wild ingredients that were locally foraged. If you’re interested in that type of thing, Axol will explain how the different components were made and why, truly a wealth of knowledge. As long as Axol is there, I’ll be coming back to see what exciting new concoctions they’ve come up with.

This restaurant was the most amazing place for a Mother’s Day brunch. Our server was absolutely on top of everything. Service was amazing. She kept our drinks full and brought out fresh plates and cutlery for us to share our entrees and dessert. Deniz was our waitress and she was as exemplary.

Nice vibe, but slow service on a slow night. Tasty food but incredibly small portions. They also profile their guests. I ordered the bistro fillet and it was maybe 4 oz. Fine , except the table next to me also ordered it and got a cut at least 3 times larger.
automatic 18% gratuity too. Cool.
