Best Open Kitchen Restaurants in Springfield

Happy hour on a Tuesday. Early - like 5:30. Bar area was hopping. I sat (all alone, sniffle, as I was traveling for business) in the main dining room. Even with the separation , the vibe from the bar made me a little envious. The food is small plates, though I didn’t see the word “Tapas” anywhere. I ordered a glass of housemade Sangria. I always like sangria on the menu more than I like it in real life. Nevertheless, this was pretty good. I decided on the $38 order whatever you want as much as you want bottomless dinner option. 38 bucks?! Yep. Good deal as long as you can eat 4 small plates. As it turns out I can, in fact, eat 4 small plates. I probably could’ve done a fifth but I didn’t wanna make a pig of myself. I ordered the following. Cold chili udon noodles, pork belly bao buns, spicy cucumbers, and jerk chicken skewers. Everything was I’d-order-that-again good. Oh wait- I had the street corn too. I guess I did make a pig out of myself. Final thoughts: go with a friend or two. Otherwise you’ll look silly like I did, eating sharable plates all by yourself. If you have no friends, invite me. I would definitely go back.

Excellent service by Alexander ( hope I got that right). Knew his wine and just great personality!

Great experience dining here for the first time! Server was very attentive and food was wonderful! Kids were very happy with personal pizzas!

We arrived late afternoon on a rainy Saturday and few people there and quite dark. By the time we left, completely different vibe as it really filled up. Food was excellent. Hardly ever can I get shrimp and grips w/o park but here I could and it was delicious. Service outstanding. Looking forward to going there again. It’s right next to Roslyn Metro where the Farmers Market is held.

Had a wonderful experience. The food was delicious and the service was great. We sat at the counter and were able to watch the chef make everything. Since we went on a Monday, wine was market price, so we enjoyed the salmon special and pork chop with a bottle of wine. Too bad they're closing the restaurant portion, because we would definitely go back. Looking forward to taking some cooking classes there though!
