Never expected to be blown away by EVERY DISH we ordered. At 1st we were very reluctant that we would find something we would like because we aren’t into all the gamey meats they had…. BUT my goodness, everything was perfect!!! Or “fireeee” as my picky husband said!

The Baja Fresh Oyster appetizer was delicious! The flavoring was bright and fresh, it had all the flavor profiles to tantalize my taste buds, I could’ve eaten 2 doz!!! The Patatas Bravas scallops appetizer was also a hit as it was cooked to perfection. The sauce paired so well with it, my plate was wiped clean. Make sure to also get the tacos de lengua!!! The meat was tender but not too rich, and the salsa complimented the well seasoned meat even my 1 year old son was saying, “Mmmm!!!”

Hubby had the Our burger which was cooked perfectly. Every bite left u craving for more… n that says a lot when youre just eating a burger.

Also, the bread pudding was delectable!!!!

This place is a 10/10 and far exceeded all of our expectations!!! Make this place a must try if you’re around the area!! Service was great too! Soo happy to have celebrated my son’s 1st birthday here!!!!!

Each dish is better than the last. This is the food joint for people who work at food joints. Great decor and will definitely be seeing me again soon. Be on the lookout for their pop up events!

We hosted a company happy hour for a conference event in the upstairs private party space. The rooms were interesting, food and drinks excellent, and service impeccable. Evening was a success. Highly recommend!

If you want to have the best cocktails in all of San Diego, go here.

I had a cocktail with gin, chili, and katsuobishi. Incredible depth of flavor. Smoked sea salt garnish. Photograph below.

I had a tequila reposado with honey, and espresso, their take on an espresso martini. I forget the other elements of the drink but it was delicious.

I finished with a cocktail called Fat Boy Summer. By this time, I was feeling good and can’t recall the ingredients. But, again. Delicious.

The atmosphere is swanky, moody and intimate. Talented and professional bartenders.

I spent $62 for 3 cocktails- worth every penny.

I’ll definitely be back.

I came for Happy Hour and had an amazing experience! It was really fun to taste a bunch of appetizers lots of exotic meat. The drinks were really good. It’s pretty pricey so this would definitely be a special experience. This is a really popular place so you wanna go during happy hour or make a reservation well in advance the service was great and the atmosphere was really fun. I’ll definitely come again.

***came back a second time and was even better than the first! New items were fantastic! Try the bison tartar!!!!!! Frog legs and beet salad were also top-notch!

Absolutely fabulous experience. The tacos were bursting with flavor and the meat was so tender it melted in your mouth. The venison sliders were juicy and thick. Every bite was perfect. Washed it all down with two shanties. I took the bread pudding to go and it did not disappoint.

I wanted to find an unique place for a nice dinner. This place has met my expectations. The decor and ambiance were elegant and fun.

The menu is simple. We were not hungry so we got two dishes to share. The bison tartare was served on a bed of mashed potatoes and bone marrow. The flavor was great and it was good on the roasted sourdough bread. We also ordered elk chops. When it first came out, it wasn’t hot. It seems like it’s been sitting on the counter for a bit. It tasted more like medium instead of medium rare. We spoke to the waiter about it and he immediately offered to make us another one. When the new one came out, it was steaming hot and it’s medium rare like what we expected. The sauce was a bit too salty for my taste. I wasn’t a fan of corn gnocchi (i think). I was too full so I didn’t get to try their bread pudding but it sounded amazing.

Overall, the service was great. The price was a bit expensive but not too expensive for the kind of food you get.

Everything was amazing! The server even remembered my query on the duck dish (which used to be served and displayed on the menu as “Duck and Rabbit”), and circled back to inform me that it’s still part of the dish.

The sauce was a bit too tart and thick for my licking and I would’ve preferred a lighter sauce. The bison tartare and bone marrow was simply amazing. No hint of gameyness in any of these meats.

Buttered martini was a hit, too. Also a fan of the decor which keeps faithful to the theme of exotic meats.

Had frogs legs and bison tartare. The tartare was really good! The frogs legs had a lot of fried coating. Truffle fries were delicious but relatively small portions. Really liked the blackberry cider. My friends enjoyed their ‘full time lover’ cocktail. A little noisy but loved the art.

We enjoyed our team dinner here. The food is well cooked and there are many interesting options. We trying frog legs . Yum
The drinks are strong but a bit weird. I am all for crafty cocktails but they were a bit too crafty.
The atmosphere is amazing, dark moody with so many unique decorations. Service is quick and very attentive.
Highly recommend, just make sure you have a reservation because they are very busy.
