Yelper Rebecca C., who reviewed it on Dec. 6, said, "A fantastic addition to the incredible restaurants already located on Pearl Street. I had the avocado sandwich, quarter chicken, veggies, squash and potatoes. Everything we ate was fantastic! The seasoning was perfect, the sauces were a tasty addition and the sides all had their own unique spin to them."
D J. wrote, "Ordered a half chicken with the Piri-Piri and chimichurri sauce. Really simple presentation, very appealing. Chicken is super juicy, filled with amazing flavors where the charcoal is present but does not dominate. Sauces pair very well, nothing overpowering—the chicken shines."
The new spot is open from 11 a.m.–9 p.m. daily.
