Drawing on America’s melting pot culture, the most comforting tastes from a spectrum of ethnicities are inventively refashioned for contemporary appeal – not only across a frequently updated seasonal menu, but within a single dish, such as General Tsao Chicken Tacos. Crispy fritterbattered chicken strips, ensconced in double layer blue tortillas lined with cheddar and Monterey Jack cheeses, are topped with lusciously plummy sweet-sour sauce, sushistyle aioli, sesame seeds, and scallions. Tots are a house fave. At the bar, explore classic cocktails with tasteful twists or esoteric wines. A serious beer selection features local craft brews and imports, while rotating taps invite return visits.
