"A restaurant closing to undergo renovations and reopen with a new concept as a wood-fired steakhouse." - Dianne de Guzman
"Slabtown’s wood-fired restaurant once known primarily for its pineapple-brined grilled chicken has expanded drastically, now serving wagyu steak au poivre and branzino during its dinner service. At weekend brunch, neighborhood locals walk over for speck Benedicts on grilled house brioche, buttermilk waffles topped with grilled chicken and Calabrian chile hot honey, and oyster mushroom frittatas. Those looking for something a little lighter will be happy here, with dishes like salmon salad with marinated chickpeas or gluten-free granola and yogurt with passionfruit and guava sauce. Brunch runs from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays." - Rebecca Roland, Brooke Jackson-Glidden, Eater Staff
