A carnivore's dream! Locally sourced meats that are grilled over wood fire. Decor is modern with high ceilings. This is a great place for groups as you can order by the pound and sample a variety of meats. All are good!!! Sides like fried brussel sprouts and mexican street corn. The desserts are sinful, if you have any room left!
