Manhattan Project Beer Co.

The Red Gate brought us here. Enjoyable experience. Nice folks. The fries were awesome. Pictures don't do them justice. They look like any other hand cut, fresh fries that are generally underwhelming. However, these are not underwhelming. These are exactly what fresh cut fries were called by the Almighty Creator to be. The beer is awesome!

First time coming here. The environment is calm and very nice to co-work, study, or just meet up with friends. Clean and nice staff. I am not an avid beer person but it was good too. We ordered the charcuterie board and to my surprise they served it with hummus and, some of what looked like soft pita chips and some nuts. It seemed very vegetarian forward which was nice. The best of all was the server, Bella Reynolds. One of the best services I have received in a restaurant. Extremely nice, tentative to our wants, knows how to talk and have great conversations. Best of luck to her endeavors!

This place is such a gem — cute, welcoming, and full of character. The beer is consistently great, and the service is top-notch. What really stands out is the staff — they’re genuinely friendly, attentive, and just awesome to deal with. Whether you’re a regular or just popping in for the first time, they make you feel right at home. It’s one of those spots you keep coming back to, not just for the drinks, but for the whole experience.

First time customer and was not impressed. The selection is not as big as I would have expected and the service is not very good. You have to go to the counter to order both drinks and food. When the food came no utensils were brought and I had to get myself. Empty cups piled up on the table. The food is very reasonably priced but wish they increased the price so quantity could be increased. Appetizer for chicken tenders only 3 pieces for example. They were okay but the dipping sauce was the star of the show. Same with the chips and queso. Didn't provide many chips but the queso was the star of the show. When you go up to order there is no organized line, you wait which for an early weekday evening is strange and they have no clue who was there first as they took someone who was behind me over me. Overall it's reasonably priced, quality is ok but the service is sub par. We sat inside but the outside looks very nice

Impressive appearance sad the way they do business with customers. Order anything and they want to swipe a card. They keep track of the tabs by your name. Bad idea. Bacon cheese burger is good. Pass on the recooked steak fries. Hot outside cold on the inside. Looks like a kaiser roll for a bun not sure. But it was tasty without the sauce. Had the pilsner and tried the Italian cream soda. Don't do the Italian cream soda. It's milk soda. Blaaaaa. All orders are taken at the bar. No wait service. Just deliver to your chosen table. Interesting they rinse the glasses before each poor. But unsure if they are washed between use.

If you love the movie "Marley & me", this place is for you. Feels like a suburban backyard cookout: Couples, kids, dogs, beer, & food. Plenty of strangers socializing outdoors. No singles in the mix. The black bean arepas were really good. They don't mash them; a really nice touch. Breakfast tacos also wonderful. Their beers are second (or even third) shelf. Plenty of room for improvement. They had an engineer logged into the PLC. Hooray!

Here’s my problem with all these popular establishments in Dallas. They operate under the assumption that business will always be good, therefore they no longer have to try. Take a lot for granted. Service nonexistent. Food never came. The four beers I sampled on a flight all tasted the same and were not good. We drove a long way to try this place out. Wasted night. Had to go get some food somewhere else that would wait on us and give a flip. There is not one person in this place who I saw go above and beyond on a single thing. Not worth the hype. But hey, $30 later, we had sampled four nasty little beers. Be sure to add a good 20% minimum for tip regardless of your experience.

Always dependable place to go for a good beer and a meal. Three venues including outdoor beer garden, taproom, and inside the tank room provide a choice of environments to suit. Beer selections range from light lager to hearty stout. We recommend the Plutonium 239 stout. Yummy! The menu is not extensive but the food quality and preparation is on a par with an upscale restaurant. Our favorite is the fried chicken that has a coating superior to any we have found in Dallas. The charcuterie platter with hard and soft cheeses, house made crackers, dates, figs, nuts, and dried cranberries is also quite special. Highly recommend.

I absolutely love Manhattan Project Beer. It's probably in my top 5 of all brands, especially their dark beers. I took a large party to the brewery for my 40th birthday and we had an amazing time. I did call ahead to make sure that we were expected and the staff did not disappoint! Everyone was incredibly nice to us, checked on us constantly and were very quick to bring our drinks to us. I can't wait to go back and spend some more time at the brewery. If you're in the area, you must check them out!

First of all my partner and I have been wanting to visit this brewery for awhile. We finally were in town and had a chance to come in. We were pleasantly treated by a very nice bartender that was very happy to be there and very proud of brewery. He offered us multiple samples before we settled on our selections. I had the half life and my partner had the double half life. They were both delicious hazy IPAs that hit the spot. We enjoyed their truffle fries as well and they were crisp and fresh and very delicious. Only reason I did not give it a 5 was the atmosphere was very minimalistic, clean and modern with an interesting vibe that was not ours. But please don't let that stop you from stopping in. I highly recommend!

Location East Dallas Parking Large lot which fills up fast, street parking Atmosphere Chill brewery. Seating Inside bar, booths, tables Outstanding de-tables, chairs, umbrellas-like we were at a art. Service Oder at the bar-fast, friendly Menu Special menu, food, beer, beverage. We had the sparkling brut-crisp, not too dry. Refreshing. Hoppingeimer-perfect! The salmon salad was AMAZING! Lots of sliced cherry tomatoes, feta, cucumber slices, onion, bib lettuce. Light vinaigrette. So good!! Summary We were recommended to cone here-new fav place!! Great food, wide list if beers, chill atmosphere!

Pink lemonade sour was very good and the food was surprisingly good. Some people in my group had the burger which they raved about, another had the steak frites which were on the cheaper side for steak. I made a quinoa bowl and the quinoa was flavorful! It's open seating and we sat in the back where the beer is stored which was cool to see. We went during a busy time and food and drinks still came out fast.

Very large brewery. Indoor and outdoor seating. Dog friendly. Self serve water station located inside. They do have free parking located on site but can get filled quick during peak times. Service has always been good. Good atmosphere. I ordered a matcha latte and it tasted so good!! Good beers!

Their food tasted good. You had to order at the bar and walk to a table to sit. It had a Manhattan Project theme.

LOVED our first visit! So much to enjoy, and sounds like plans in the works to mature the already excellent experience further. We came because I love the Hoppenheiner beer I get at local package retailers. The brewery is what I look for - tables for socializing, a good selection of beer, and a view in to a clean high quality establishment. Hands up. I am excited about an upcoming project to layer in a coffee roaster so I will be back once that installation is complete. Be still my heart. I believe in dual use space and this hits the sweet spot. The food menu is creative and I passed this time for lack of plant based options. Hopefully more to come! Pleasant staff and service. The model is you order at the bar and walk your order to a seating of your choice, so you are doing the work here. I love that for flights you write down your own selection so there is no room for error. Flights are bit expensive. Overall we adored the total visit and cannot wait to come back especially when it warms up to sit outside in the lovely lawn seating.

1st time trying on our way to Oklahoma. We will be back! Excellent Thai fried chicken with chili sauce, chill atmosphere, and most importantly the Hoppenheimer west coat IPA- delicious!

Beautiful open concept brewery in the Dallas area. They have a wide variety of beers on draft. But I believe the food is the star in this place. Everything we ordered was fresh and delicious. We went with the pulled pork arepas (scrumptious) and the fried chicken in Thai chilli ( super crispy and excellent amount of sweet and sour spices) we also ordered the horchata ice cream with fried arepa, this last one blew our socks off! Definitely save space for dessert. Wonderful helpful attendants and a very relaxed ambiance.

Manhattan Project was one of the coolest breweries I have visited, and definitely my favorite in Dallas! When I was googling "breweries in Dallas" and saw this one opened at 7am, I was intrigued....turns out they have an amazing little coffee shop and kitchen as well! This was the perfect place to spend some time before leaving for a late afternoon flight out. The ambiance was modern but cozy. Lots of different seating, fun lighting, and a beautiful outdoor space as well. We were there for several hours so we saw people working and on zoom calls, groups coming in for lunch, and friends just catching up. You order everything at the bar, and service was always friendly and accommodating every time we went up. We started out with coffee drinks around 10am - I got the strawberry matcha and it was fantastic! We then moved on to beer... we tried a few! Half Life Hazy IPA, Necessary Evil pilsner, and Red Gate amber lager. Everything we tried was very very good! Finally, time to order lunch! We got the chips and queso, which was a huge portion of fried flour chips and white queso. I ordered the lunch special of two arepas and a salad, while my friend ordered the steak rice bowl. Some of the best food I've had a brewery, hands down! Very creative and unique. If you are looking for a great brewery experience in Dallas, stop looking and head straight to Manhattan Project. You won't be disappointed!!!

Fantastic hazy ipa's and Belgian strong! Also the steak is not to be missed!! The atmosphere is very trendy and cool

Came back this weekend. As always had an overall nice experience was just a bit disappointed in the steak. Ordered the steak frites and wasn't asked on temperature at all. Came out med well and flavorless so I would avoid the steak. Still stand by that these are amazing fries though! There were quite a few kids running around with no parents in sight. Bartender even had to find parents to get a kid to stop climbing the nursery sized trees.

I LOVE breweries, and I think this is my official favorite in Dallas. I've been here multiple times for multiple occasions - work happy hour, a coffee & beer with my laptop to end the work day, weekend day drinking with the pup, and most recently, we came for brunch. It was DELICIOUS. I follow their Instagram page (highly suggest) and their weekly food specials always look so delicious. We got the chorizo breakfast tacos - they were huuuge and came with breakfast potatoes. Also got the classic breakfast with amazing homemade pancakes, breakfast potatoes, cheesy eggs, and bacon. Both entrees were delicious. The whole brunch menu is great - it was hard to choose a meal. Finally, their beers AND coffee always hit the spot. Great variety of light and dark beers for any preference. They also have live music outside often. Can't recommend enough!

Came here with a social group and had a great time. The brewery is really clean and has a great, inviting ambiance. We were some of the first people to order in our group and our food came out fairly fast. My boyfriend & I shared the nachos & 2 piece chicken. The chicken was amazing and super crispy!! I highly recommend. The nachos, on the other hand, weren't as great as they've been in the past. I think that was due to the fact that they weren't super warm when we received them. The meat wasn't as flavorful as I remember last time either. Overall the flavors were good just wish the dish was hotter/spices tasted consistent throughout. I've ordered the arepas in the past from here and they're super greasy and the meat didn't taste good-I don't recommend.

I come here after my run club run and every time the environment is amazing. People are so outgoing and the service is fast. The food is great especially the chicken tenders. I definitely recommend.

This is probably my favorite brewery here in North Texas. The beer is great, the food is delicious, the coffee is good, and the brewery itself is awesome. I have been here a few times now and haven't had a bad experience yet. It's one of my favorite places to chill at and have a beer when visiting Dallas.

Was recommended to this play by a friend and am so glad I finally went! The map takes you through a little industrial part of Dallas and you end up in a super cute spot. MP has large outdoor areas for seating and a big indoor space as well. People were using the space for working, catching up with friends - seems like a great space for all. Very modern sleek feel to the interior which I loved. The bar is in the center with a bunch of taps. I wasn't drinking at the time so unfortunately didn't get to try any of the beers but they had a wide variety of beer and wine. Lots of great non alcoholic drinks as well! I enjoyed a key lime ginger beer that was delish! The food was AMAZING. I cannot lie. Some of the best I have had in a while. I got the quinoa bowl with veggies and salmon and everything was to die for. My friend got the tender chicken thighs with some homemade sauces that were also delectable (honestly an understatement). Could eat here every night. Have smaller bites too like a cheese platter or chips and queso if you're feeling that. Overall was an amazing time and will be bringing everyone in Dallas I know back here!

Fun place to hang out and drink amazing beers. Nice outdoor patio. It's decor is more brewery than bar but it's a great place to sample the excellent beers they offer. Outdoor seating area is great if it's not too, too hot outside. They have nice beers ABVs vary quite a bit so be aware. Beers are available in 12 or 16 ounce sizes. I enjoyed their double hazy IPA. But if I'd had one more of those I may have gotten double hazy, myself. ;-)

Had the chance to try this local brewery this weekend. The exterior looked very sleep and modern. There are lots of outdoor seating, they even include misting machines to help keep it cool. Inside there are bar seating and tables, note it can get busy on the weekend and you might not get a table right away. They have an extensive list of beer (duh) and the names are pretty creative. I tried the Thai fried chicken in tender style; it was excellent! The sauce was sweet and spicy. I just wished it came with more sauce. The side of fries was very good as well. This is a great spot to come with friends to hang out and eat. We'd come back!

Love Manhattan Project beer - which was good enough - but now I love their food! They fry their chicken and fries in tallow instead of seed oils. Yay! The food tastes so much better than a comparative place using seed oils. The atmosphere is great and gets very busy on weekends - so plan accordingly.

This place is so good! Kid friendly, delicious food, relaxing ambiance, and the service is excellent.

The Thai fried chicken is awesome! Seriously, some of the best fried chicken you will ever eat! It is super crispy like no other. It's like chicken bacon. I couldn't stop eating it. They would do well to offer a side of waffles to go with! Forget about any other chicken house in the state. This place is the best! Going with 5 stars! Well done boys.

Can't think of a better brewery experience than this. The beer is fantastic of course (hello nanoseconds!) and the food! I mean the food is phenomenal (I could eat that fried chicken everyday!!!). The taproom is chill, the bartenders are super friendly and a welcoming vibe. Oh they also open super early on the weekends if you wanna get a head start. What more do you want? Go here!!

This is a top 10 brewery for 2023. I've been to Manhattan at least three times within the last month. I've had a ball every time. Manhattan Project is a big space with seating outside and extended areas inside to hang out They have food and it's not just chips and dips. They have a chef that puts out excellent fare from breakfast, and brunch to late lunch. We've stayed that long drinking and taking to know. Initially, we went to their anniversary party and they had specialty beers and brisket that was slow-smoked. The way I jacked somebody for their fries and garlic aioli dip I wasn't hungry and asked for it to go. The fries were seasoned to perfection. Chef's kiss and a dang hug! Can you tell I'm a fries snob?! Ahem, moving forward I also start my beer menu journey with a Hefeweizen and then go on from there. I love the bready banana clove goodness. As we talked, we snacked and talked more. Then, we have Thanksgiving night. A few of the Black Beer Delegates met up. Quite a few people were looking to get out of the house like we did on Thursday. Sam took the best care of us as he poured and laughed at some Single in the City stories. They only had chips and queso since they let the kitchen staff off. That was nice but it wasn't once or thrice but all evening that we dared them to heat the oil for fries . We had such an awesome time and Sam told us about brunch we turned around and went back that Sunday with more Delegates in tow. Next time I'm going to remember to bring my Uno cards. If you haven't been to Manhattan and you drink Craft Beer you're missing out!

Food - exceptional for bar/ brewery food. Fried chicken and the arepa are my go to. Not a huge fan of the fries. Beer - very decent beer. Not as complex or interesting as could be but solid, consistent. Ambiance - good indoor and out door space. Outside is nice. They've set it up nicely you forget you are in a weird location . Have haters, mist sprays depending on weather. Decent live music some evenings. Dog and kid friendly. Early evenings hard to find an outdoor table that is not near a toddler. But in evenings crowd is good - not too empty or too busy. Service is ok.

1000/10 the best part of living in Oak Cliff! Why did it take me a YEAR to find this magical land of GF tasty treats at pre-pandemic prices??? Please, don't change anything about your business. It may look small, but there is plenty of seating inside. And tons outside with fans and misters. The crispy Thai chicken was so freaking crunchy, juicy and absolute perfection, I ordered a second plate. (You can judge me if you are able to refrain from doing the same.) You order at the counter and they will find you and bring you your food and drinks. The morning coffee menu looks appealing. But the star is the food! They have several beers and the beer business at the bar was steady. I am celiac, so I stuck with a truly refreshing strawberry lemonade and I didn't miss the booze at all.

I love this place!! It's so cool and unique. The IPA beer is great.The arepas were just OK but the nachos, cheeseboard, and chicken were fantastic. I was surprised at how good the food is.

Stopped by the Manhattan Project Beer Company before a mini golf date with my partner. The brewery is located near the Trinity Groves area of Dallas and there is plenty of parking when you arrive. If the parking lot is full next to the brewery, there is also street parking available. When we walked up to the brewery, there were several people sitting outside but you also have the option to sit inside. We opted for inside and walked up to the bar to order some beer & food. I ordered the Hoppenheimer (West Coast IPA) to drink which had a nice pine flavor. Also, we ordered Thai Fried Chicken and then tossed in Thai chili sauce and an order of the chili cheese fries. Y'all the chili cheese fries were so addicting and the fries were cooked to the perfect crispness. The fries reminded me of these amazing duck fat potatoes I've had in Seattle that were addicting. Also, the Thai Fried Chicken was amazing and I could stop eating it. I can't wait to return to this brewery in the future.

Great PEACEKEEPER 5.2% blonde draft beer ! The esthetics are so up to date and the garden is so clean and spaced out

Amazing brewery food options and beer, staff is incredible and the tap room atmosphere is the best in DFW.

DOUBLE HALF-LIFE HAZY IPA 8% ABV | 50 IBU WOW!!! This is a Big HAZY IPA. I'm always looking for a big Hazy and I Love a deep flavored double IPA. Manhattan went straight to my heart giving me both in the Double Half-Life Hazy!!! This is the kind of brewery you spend endless visits until you find the one. Kudos to everyone on the Manhattan Team!!!!

Great beer, many selections including several gluten reduced options. Nice outdoor area. Dog friendly! Good food options, too. What's not to like?

We've had Manhattan Project beer before at events or other places but decided to check out the brewery to see what it was about and it was not at all what I was expecting. This place is the fanciest brewery I have ever been to. I felt like I was transported back to D.C. because it felt so bougie. Not the employees, who were amazing, but some of the patrons. It just didn't really feel down to earth for me and not really my vibe. But the reason why we came was for the beer, which was really good. Hell, the food is too actually. You'll pay a pretty penny to try a bit of everything, but it's honestly worth it. But if you're able to get the lunch deal, which comes with a beer, it's a good deal. And you're in luck because their chicken was super tasty. As far as beer goes, "Half-Life" is always my to go and it's an excellent hazy IPA, but I've yet to have any beer that I don't like here.

With not much experience with breweries, I'm glad we went here! The staff was very knowledgeable about their selection with an array of drinks from coffee to beer. We didn't get any food but their menu was very well put together and seemed to pair nicely with their drink options. We weren't sure exactly where to enter, causing us to feel bad with the wonderful live music that was going on as we entered by the act. The view of the inner works of the brewery was awesome to see while people flowed through, trying different beers and enjoying each other's company. If I could've, I would've snagged some merch on our way out but we were very impressed with everything!

Manhattan Project has quickly become one of my favorite breweries in Dallas. I had only seen their IPAs and Pilsners around town, so I was impressed by the variety of beer at the brewery. The taproom is very pleasing to the eye. They have a nice, dog friendly patio with misters to help cool things off in the summer. My only wish is that they had heaters on the patio as well! Some of my favorite beers are the Delayed Destination, Red Gate, and their Oktoberfest. While the beer at Manhattan Project is great, I highly recommend you come hungry as their food is even better. The Thai fried chicken and arepas are both delicious. I haven't tried anything else on the menu as those are hard to beat! I have still yet to visit in the morning to try their coffee, but it's on my list.

Good beer and good atmosphere, also has good food. Nice place to meet up with friends.

Great place to hang out and enjoy some brews and good food in West Dallas! The inside bar area is nice but it's not super huge so it can fill up quickly. There's also a nice outdoor patio area that's probably about the same size or maybe even a little larger than the indoor seating area. They release new beers fairly regularly and all of the food I've tried has definitely been above average for bar food. The arepas are my go-to. They have live music every Sunday and Thursday evening, outside or inside depending on the weather. I think they recently started doing brewery tours too. I met one of the owners because Manhattan Project donates beer to a local non-profit community arts organization I work with in West Dallas (Artstillery). He's a good guy and it's cool that they support local organizations.

Yum! We came here for a light dinner and drinks with work colleagues and we were beyond pleasantly surprised! This was some of the best food I've had in a long time. The steak chimichurri (apologies for butchered spelling) were AMAZING. Would kill to have these again. The fried chicken was really yummy as well. Great drinks. Cool atmosphere and amazing food. Definitely worth a trip.

If you believe less is more! This is the place for you! Order a half chicken, and you will literally get a cispy half chicken .... that's right no sides no love on anything just a dang chicken.. Basic plating and no sides, that right folks! You don't get anything other than a chicken because, less is more! That's not even half the problem, the other is that it's doesn't even taste good...neither the chicken or burger we had. Both were tasteless and pathetic for $50... But who cares right this is a distillery, come for the beer not the food..since less is more!!! Highly recommend for anyone that loves "less is more"... Less taste! less food! = more! Sidenote: lemonade and the cream soda taste like dog water

Good beer, cute place, and friendly staff! Love coming here :) the nachos were a little oily for my taste but everything else was good.

Hit this brewery during the last couple hours of me and my wife's 1 year wedding anniversary weekend before heading to the airport. The IPA's were the best tasting high ABV beers I've ever had. The service was quick, the flight pours were generous(no head), the eats menu was excellent and the place was spotless. The indoor bar and dining area was very unique and family friendly. Hellova place to work remote. Highly recommended for the Craft beer newb, craft beer snob or the semi pro beer sommelier.

It took me 45 years to finally fall in love with beer..... Manhattan Project makes my two favorite!

Great food and ambiance! Highly recommend the pickled tomato arepa! We sat outside and enjoyed the food and the weather.

Food is better than most breweries. Hubs enjoys the beers. They also have wine, now. Will try their coffee eventually. Live music outdoors on Thursdays. Easiest to sit and order at the bar. There's enough waitstaff you don't have a long wait. Location is perfect.

Cool location. Friendly staff. Perfect ambiance. Excellent beers. Try it! And if you're planning on having one too many, why not come (and go) via the DART station immediately next door?

Manhattan Project Beer Company is the best brewery I have ever been to! The décor and the vibe is fun, modern, but comfortable. The beer selection is amazing, my fave is Necessary Evil and I've reached a point where no other beer quite satisfies like the ones offered at Manhattan Project Beer Company. Then there's the food! Are you serious? You could come here to just eat the food is so good! The Thai Chicken! C'mon on man, wow, did not expect such good fried chicken at a brewery! I bought a T-Shirt last Saturday to show my love and support of Manhattan Project Brewery Company, that's how good this place is. Get over there asap!!!

Cute & nice spot! Came on a Thursday afternoon. There were some people on their laptops & others hanging out - I like the indoor & outdoor seating space. I sat at the bar with my friends. We were instantly welcomed by the worker & she was attentive & helpful. Appreciate being able to sample the beers. We got the particles collide delta (hazy ipa), hoppenheimer (west coast ipa), & fallout (hefeweizen). Although I had a pretty big lunch before heading over here, I wanted to give their chicken a try. Obviously had to order a side of fries too! Chicken was juicy & be careful - it comes really hot, so maybe wait a little before burning your fingers/mouth. I'd have to say both the chicken & fries were more on the extra salty side for me. Their green sauce tasted quite refreshing & had a good flavor to it. This would definitely be a spot I'd visit over & over again. I'll need to make another visit the next time I'm back in town. Great for small & big groups!

Very nice ambience & bartenders are so friendly, patient and pleasant. I've tried like 6-7 different beers from them, all delicious. If you're into matcha, try the strawberry matcha latte. Yummm! Love this place.

Nice ambiance, good food, dress up or dress down. It's all up to you. I was able to bring my kiddos and didn't feel out of place. I wish there were more places like this around. Keep it up MP team. P.S. cool name.

They explain their goal for their IPAs at length on their website. As someone who hadn't learned to enjoy IPAs, I found options that I liked at Manhattan Project. You'll see in my food reciews that I can enjoy scrumptious food anywhere and with any quality of service, but I don't find mediocre food worth the price even if I'm pampered in a castle. I'm new to reviewing breweries, but I've already found that the experience is not just about the drinks for me. The space inside was beautiful, with high ceilings and floor-yo-ceiling glass panes through which you could see the action backstage. Could use more indoor seating--the outdoor space was also very well organized for groups, but there was no respite from the setting summer sun. Ample parking in the lot, gets more crowded in the evenings. If you prefer a different sort of eye-opener, you could try something from their coffee menu. The place is pretty kid-friendly as evidenced from all the kids who were present when we went, and it was nice that there were plenty of food options they could enjoy, too. \\ Thai fried chicken, two piece - I have no idea what Thailand's take on fried chicken is like but this one is delectably crunchy on the outside and juicy on the inside - comes with a leg and thigh, appreciated the tasty dark meat, plenty of meat despite the bones - the batter is gluten-free! light and airy - the wings can be tossed in Thai chili sauce (mostly sweet, not spicy at all) or Buffalo (I think??)--clearly it was a no-brainer - get the nam jim--which apparently just means "dipping sauce" in Thai--for an additional complex refreshing complex citrusy kick - comes hot and fresh and made to order \\ truffle fries - arguably the best thing I tried all night - the edges and corners of each fry reminded me of the first tome I learned the definitions for those words--they were so well-defined and crispy - these days truffle might have been a little overdone, a little overwhelming but not this one! the fragrance speaks of a reserved chef exercising appropriate self-control \\ sour \ the cherry one - wow I don't think I ever learned its full name but it was a fruity sour that makes cheeks pucker - tried some IPAs and the rice lager but ultimately returned to my beloved sours After studying the online beer menu extensively, I came prepared to order the crowd-favorite Half-life or the lighter Redacted, perfect for a triple-degree summer afternoon. The samples I tried of each were tasty, and I certainly intend to get them next time... unless another sour distracts me. It is also completely understandable and reasonable to come just for the truffle fries.
