Another great experience, it’s worth making the drive to this location rather than eating at the Wynwood location. Love the tikka fries that have been added to the menu

Great joint. Music is nice. Food is good! Drinks can use a face lift. Strange concoctions. They should try and mirror more finka cocktails.
