About

The 12-hour smoked brisket is the reason to come, but the mushroom toast at breakfast will surprise you just as much. Chef Alex runs the choma station, Pauline and Mordecai handle private events with care, and happy hour (6-7 PM) is the best time to experience the camping-themed space in quiet Karen.
