Insights from Johnny: The Culinary Critic
The menu, oh how it dances! Their burgers, artfully stacked, whisper sweet nothings about local NW pasture-raised beef embraced by artisanal buns crafted with love from Avenue Bakery. Each bite is a promise fulfilled, a melody of flavors—juicy, savory, bombastic! Then there are the fresh grain bowls—a vibrant embrace of health that doesn’t forget to indulge. Let’s not forget the fish sandwiches, gracefully flaunting wild-caught salmon and cod, served with pride and expertise.
