Our first visit to this interesting concept space. Multiple restaurants under one ownership sharing common space. Food bought at one place can be taken to any other, but liquor must stay where it's purchased. There are choices for every taste, from poke to street tacos, from burgers to baguettes. Cool concept, for sure.
We shared two of the tacos bought from an Airstream trailer. These were very tasty and the condiments were great too. The seasoned tortilla chips appeared to be homemade but tasted like the oil was old. Guac was tasty.
From Burger Brawler, we shared a basic cheeseburger with added bacon. The patty was a bit thin, but the overall taste experience was positive. Not sure why they only served ketchup as a condiment, as there are so many possibilities with mustards.
Up to this point, four stars would be appropriate, but the beer experience at Brawler knocked a star off. They offered a strange mix of Big Beer selections along with some interesting local craft brews. The beer list is ordered by body, from lightest to darkest. When I asked for a porter, the server informed me that they were out, but offered a substitute that he said was similar. When a light colored glass was presented, I asked him what's up. He informed me that this was darker than many others on the list. I gave a guffaw at that, and he offered me a "local Guinness". I really wondered if he had a clue about beer, so I kept what I had (tasted like a decent pale ale, but I have no clue what it was).
I hope this place succeeds, as it's a fun concept. I think having a few more options might give it the critical mass to satisfy the masses.
