5 /5 Patrick No: Really delicious food here in Kingston, likely one of the nicest restaurants in the town. With espresso martinis and regular martinis on draft, I can tell who the catered demographic is.
That being said, I did indeed get a draft martini to pair with a delicious dinner of: a Porkchop, Trout, Octopus, alongside a side of fries and mixed greens.
The Porkchop came with an East Asian tamarind inspired sauce which I thought paired nicely. Wood fire grilled made the char and flavor so much better than a skillet. I found it to be delicious! One of the best dishes I’ve had all year!
The trout was good with crispy skin and a good flavor. Pickled mushrooms were nice and homemade but may have been a bit overwhelming to the rest of the dish but that’s being nit picky.
The octopus was fine — not a knockout dish but it was still good. Basically had an advanced chipotle mayo (Calabrian aioli) on the bottom.
The fries and mixed greens were delicious. Perfect homemade fries and an outstanding dressing on the mixed greens.
The dessert is to not be missed, luckily came on a day where they had my favorite sorbet, Blood Orange. Purple Rice Pudding was delicious and unique.
Overall — great food here and exceeded my expectations. Had 1 night on a day trip to Kingston and it was the perfect date night.
