Today was the first time here, but I can tell this is an easy 5 stars. The food is great. Upscale bar dining experience.
Bone Marrow - Very well prepared, very delicious. To be honest, it does feel like a very small portion for the price. But then again, I do understand that bone marrow has gotten pricy this past few years.
German Potato Croquettes - A deep fried mashed potato ball with a grape size packet of bacon jam in the middle. Cheese to dip. Mashed potato and cheese was very good. I feel like the flavor profile on the bacon jam inside could be a slightly improved. But overall a decent experience!
MONNIK BEER CHEESE - Ok, lets talk about this one. I could be wrong here, but the bread seems to be homemade. A very very excellent bread that clearly had a lot of effort going into it. The beer cheese I would probably rate a 3.4/5. Of course I ate it with the bread, but stood out as probably my least favorite thing I ate. Dont get me wrong, I am sure that many of you would love this! Its just not up my alley. When I think of Beer Cheese. I think of "Red Yeti" in Jeffersonville or "New Albanian" in New Albany. Both of which have clear 10/10 flavor profiles for their beer cheese and are also very different from each other.
LOCAL BURGER - Man, everything on this burger just tasted like they plucked it from their garden in the back. The meat was cooked unusually perfect. They got the bacon to be cooked to the perfect crisp/juicyness. They asked how I wanted my burger cooked, I told them medium well and got exactly medium well.
Chicken Schnitzel - Wife got this, but she let me try about a 2oz portion. It was also perfect. A very great flavor with a perfect presentation. I think that the purple stuff was pickled cabbage. That honestly did seem a little out of place.
The wait staff was extremely nice and listed off their daily specials after taking our drinks. Note that they do seem to have quite a few choices of daily specials that are not listed on the menu. This gave a very good feel.
