This place was a lot of fun and clearly incredibly popular with tourists who read TripAdvisor and Google reviews when searching for restaurants (yeah that included me). We had a 5pm reservation day after Christmas and there was already a huge queue of people waiting outside, freezing, with no reservation. Very atmospheric inside and the staff said they sat over 1200 people on average per night. Casual place but adventurous food at a premium price. High hipster factor but not in an obnoxious way. I think we sat at a picnic table and you could draw on any wood surface in the restaurant (which was basically every surface). Staff was excellent, friendly, helpful, knowledgeable. Portions were on the small side - that's my only comment, not really a complaint. Soups were ridiculously good. It probably sounds silly but I would have loved a steak - but that wasn't an option and I can't fault the restaurant for that. Venison tartare was a main course and was really good, but I should have ordered another course or larger app. Anyway, very cool place and just make sure you make a reservation.
