    Mini brioche loaf with scallions, Parmesan and sea salt crust served with maple butter comes as a starter. Beet salad and brussel sprouts average as was trout & scallop. PB Candy Bar is a must

    Great food, really loud and cold though. Skip the lobster tots... Not enough salt or lobster. Summer menu Order: Brussels sprouts, beet salad, ny strip and a Gettysburg address ( beet juice cocktail)!

    Not sure if each menu & drink have anything to do with Lincoln though. But, food & drink "for the people, by the people" for sure. A signature cocktail, Gettysburg Address was awesome.

    Tapas style American food is the concept of this restaurant. The interior is beautiful and the drinks are tasty. Everything is seasonal so the menu changes often.

    Whether you're here for HH or dinner, try the Moscow Mule. It's a great, crisp drink served in copper mugs. Also the menu is a delicious cross between chic & comfort so check out the seasonal plates!

    Sat outside and had the rolls w gingerbread dip, amazing. Also the salmon and the strawberry beer salad were phenomenal. The pork dish was tasty but heavy.

    That blue-lit column/pole is a frequency - sound instrument, so tap on them and play a melody! Outside on sidewalk patio, hh & reverse 10p-close 11pm. Hand crafter, original & classics, manhattans etc

    Yes - they do serve Moscow Mules but they are not REAL Moscow Mules as they are not made with Ginger beer . . . That said - this place is amazing.

    Food is good and the drinks are mixed well. The only issue is that the music is way too loud for a restaurant. I can't even hear the person next to me and I have a hard time talking to the bartender
