    Πολύ όμορφος χώρος, που έλειπε από το κέντρο της Αθήνας. Ένα πραγματικό smokehouse, με εξαιρετικό brisket, αντάξιο Αμερικάνικου Νότου. Πεντανόστιμες, τραγανές πατάτες, πολύ ωραίο mac n cheese και γκουρμε, νόστιμοι πουρέδες συνοδεύουν το κρέας. Εξαιρετικά κοκτέηλ και ευγενέστατο service! Αξίζει!

    The best place we ate in Athens. The softest meat cooked to great taste, and the most amazing and surprising appetizers to share.
