With a menu containing three pages of alcohol and only one page of food, which still finds a few special drinks taking up real estate on the page, the tight food menu must deliver. And it does! At our table we tried a variety of food from steak to shrimp, land to sea, feels like we aimed to try half the menu the first time.
On special was a smoked Old Fashioned with rum. Every word in that name made me want to try it, so I did. And it was amazing. Setting the tone for delicious dish after dish. Food is well prepared and presented and has the complex blends of flavor to match.
There is a special experience to be had at R.A.W. and I would say “it isn’t on the menu” but it really is. In that limited food page menu of drinks is Keke’s Delight. But the surprise with it was that our charming server was herself Keke. Responsible for the delicious desert drink, the incredible smoked rum old-fashioned, as well as a large portion of the menu! Keke, if you are out there, somebody owes somebody a spanking and at this point I don’t know who. Thanks for great food, great service, and a really fun night.
I only managed two photos, the first are chickens roosting in a tree in the beautiful alley the restaurant is located in, which entertained us while we waited for them to open. And of the smoke rum old fashioned, which, other than Keke, will be why I come back.
