black bottle

three words set thisplaceapart: pear & gorgonzola flatbread. (ok- three words and an ampersand)…i’m just saying’…sparkling of choice was prosecco. meat-eaters: my husband vouches for the sirloin tips and roasted veggies. muted lighting and minimalist decor accentuate the simple but tasty-with-a-twist eatables.

not able to accommodate dietary restrictions.. i have never eaten at aplacethat marketed itself as being "upscale" that not able to accommodate dietary requests. if you are not able to eat garlic, beware, as all but a couple of dishes contain it and they are not able to omit the ingredeint, as apparently everything is pre-made. there are many of places nearby that will accommodate, so i will not be returning. otherwise, the atmosphere was nice and the menu seemed interesting - but not a greatplaceto dine when you cannot even have bread.

love it!. this is going to replace my latest favoriteplacefor a while until i find something new or get sick of it! :)

the cocktails were good, but the food was even better. our bartender was great and provided excellent service. really enjoyed the prosciutto and bechamel flatbread, and had it been the only thing i had it would have been a favorite but i had two dishes even better than that. highly recommend the pastrami bombers. those things were legit.

also, though it's "tapas" style the food portions are generous and the pastrami bombers will be more than enough for 7 bucks.

lastly, being korean i'm always hesitant when i see "kimchi" on the menu at any restaurant that is not a korean restaurant but the pork belly and kimchi were ridiculously good. a little on the sweet side with the sweet chili sauce they drizzle over the pork belly and kimchi skewers but i was impressed that the kimchi actually tasted like kimchi. fantastic.

will be going back often.
