Upon stepping into this theater-adjacent establishment, one is immediately struck by a curious duality—it presents itself as an oasis away from the hustle and bustle, yet struggles with delivering a memorable dining escapade. The menu ambitively offers a range of familiar dishes, including a bratwurst served with Parmesan truffle fries, though execution at times falls short, highlighted by notably cold servings. Meanwhile, an overstaffed floor belies the chaos of service, occasionally resulting in amusing mix-ups such as delivering non-vegan dishes to unaware patrons. Nonetheless, the atmosphere exudes a comforting allure, making it an excellent spot for those seeking refuge from the surrounding chaos. However, connoisseurs of wine might ponder the choice of serving by the glass from a keg, a decision that raises eyebrows regarding authenticity and value. Hidden disappointments suggest that a culinary revamp and heightened attention to detail could turn this quaint locale into a truly appetizing retreat.
