In Short
Formerly home to the Mediterranean mainstay, Doug Arango's, the new, earth-toned space is decidedly more casual. A bounty of booths and wooden banquettes surround an open kitchen and a flat screen TV, where a thirsty after-work following clamors for affordable food and drink. The new menu has preserved the Arango fave, the duck burger with gouda cheese and cherry ketchup. Also offered are an array of chalkboard specials, raw seafood appetizers, cheese plates and inventive--but still accessible--options for lunch, afternoon snacks and dinner.

What a terrible experience I had here. I brought friends from out of town- and was totally embarrassed that I did. The management was rude and didn't care about anything- the food is completely overpriced- a $15 burger does not even come with fries- you have to purchase them separately. The valet closed at 1030p and they said they would keep the cars overnight if we didn't get them!! And today I woke up feeling really sick from the food. AVOID this place!!!
