Gift Tips
- Order the Jidori fried chicken — it’s frequently called a must-try for its crisp coating and well-seasoned meat.
- Share several small plates (like the seasonal pappardelle and a few vegetable sides) so a gift card covers a full tasting experience.
- Try the skillet brown-sugar cornbread as a sweet finish or an unexpected side — it’s a standout house item.
- Ask for a table on the patio near the outdoor fireplace for a cozy evening, especially on cooler nights.
- Bring your dog and request the dog-friendly patio; staff sometimes offer house-made dog biscuits for canine guests.
- Start with the complimentary chili-lime popcorn for a fun opening bite.
