"What It Is: A brewery and casual restaurant in Sherman Oaks Perfect For: Casual Weeknight Dinner, Drinks & A Light Bite The newest beer-focused spot from the people behind Mohawk Bend is in Sherman Oaks, and it’s already packed - when we went, we saw parents with babies in high chairs, couples on dates, people grabbing a quick solo meal, and lots of friends catching up. This place is clearly a crowd pleaser, which we suspect has a lot to do with the beer - they brew a bunch of Belgian-style beers in-house and have an interesting selection of outside beers on tap. There’s also a lot of Belgian food, and while they’ll probably tell you to get the moules frites, we’d go for the fantastic roast chicken - the rest of the menu isn’t super interesting. The Verdict: Worth checking out for a beer and a snack, but don’t travel just for the food." - Jess Basser Sanders, Brant Cox, Brett Keating
