This place has to be the best addition to Hammond ever.
We've been twice in 2 weeks. First, they have the Best Bloody Mary EVER (add Sriracha), made by Ashley (she works Wed and Thurs lunch at the bar). She puts some serious magic in those things. She uses like A1, Guinness, OJ, all kinds of weird stuff. It's so damn good.
She also muddled homemade mix for a Margarita because she was out of the mix. It was probably one of the best Margs we've ever had. She is the real deal.
So far we've had the Kimchee Salmon bowl, which is KILLER! Didn't know if I'd like the sweet potato noodles, as I hate sweet potato, but they were DELICIOUS!
We also got the Shrimp PO Boy, which is probably one of the best we've ever had also. That. Bread. Damn.
Next time we got the Crawfish Dip, the Downtown Pizza, the Classic Red Vine Pizza and the Cuban.
Now, first, I hate that the menu doesn't tell you what's in the apps. Had to ask the bartender to describe every one. But, that Crawfish Dip was AWESOME. Cheesy, full of crawfish and they served it with PORK RINDS to dip with!! Holy crap!
The pizza crust is damn near perfect. My boyfriend makes homemade crust, so I'm pretty picky. That wood fired oven makes it perfectly crispy but chewy. They use shredded mozz, and a bit too much of it, for the Downtown. The Red Vine uses fresh mozz. It was WAY better. Next time we'll do the ones with fresh mozz.
The Cuban was pretty killer too. Just a sandwich, but really good. The fries were outstanding, and I'm not really a fry girl.
All in all, we LOVE the ambience here, the staff is super friendly and the food and drinks are great.
NEW FAVORITE PLACE!!
