After learning about this new joint, my sister, her friend and I decided to check it out. Environment & Hygiene:Nice decor. I like that they have booths, high tables and outdoor seatings for the crowd. At the time we visited, they were still working on the beer taps at the ends of the tables. A very comfy environment, where I can totally see myself chilling with a beer. Taste & Value:There were a few lunch sets are available.

Nice decor. I like that they have booths, high tables and outdoor seatings for the crowd. At the time we visited, they were still working on the beer taps at the ends of the tables. A very comfy environment, where I can totally see myself chilling with a beer. Taste & Value:
There were a few lunch sets are available. All came with soup or salad, a main and coffee/tea ranging from about $88 to $138. Since my sister and her friend had a snack before coming, we decided on 1 lunch set and a sandwich to share.
What we got:
Caesar Salad The ingredients were in pretty big chunks, like the croutons, cheese and egg. This salad was very fresh and wasn't overloaded with dressing; not bad. Chicken Guacamole Open faced Sandwich ($108 Lunch set)
Strips of golden brown bacon on top of a chicken patty topped with guacamole and alfalfa sprouts, this earthy sandwich was put together beautifully visually. Of course, the bacon was good. The chicken patty had a sausage kind of taste, which I didn't quite like, and it had a lot of herbs/ spices mixed in; strong to the point that I couldn't taste the guacamole. Then, alfalfa sprouts also have a strong flavour, so again another thing that was overpowering. Not as tasty as it looks. Lucikly, the coleslaw on the side was delicious and refreshing to eat. Softshell Crab Club Sandwich ($138) Quite surprisingly that you get 3 portions that weren't actually small. I'm not sure how one person would finsih all 3 him/herself along with the tater tots. I have mixed feelings towards this dish. The freshness of the ingredients impressed me, but the taste was lacking. I have to admit that it was the tater tots that attracted me in the first place, second was the softshell crab. The tater tots didn't disappoint me and were delicious. As for the sandwich, the bread was surprisingly soft and didn't scrape the roof of my mouth. The cajun sesaoned crab was light to eat and not greasy at all. However, what I really didn't like was the sauce. There was just way too much lime. Service:
The hostess was polite and sincere. The staff inside was less friendly and wasn't too happy that we were sharing the food and seemed annoyed that we asked for water and side plates. Oh well~
Final Verdict:
I wouldn't mind coming again for a beer or maybe give their beef dishes a try.
