Small storefront on Court Street. Opens up inside to a nice spacious modern type eating establishment. The Basement Bar is to your right down a flight of stairs. The Bar is tastefully lit and decorated, very comfortable feel to it. Very clean establishment. They do some wonderful food here from yakisoba to a more Meditteranean/North African fusuion type. The selection of beers on tap is always small :8, 4 upstairs at the restaurant, 4 down stairs. But the choice of the owners is very very good and fresh. Mostly rarer PNW beers that sell out very quick .They seem to change beers every couple fo weeks..though some of the more popular sell out in under 3 days.. The service I have recieved has been wonderful. Very nice and respectful. easy to talk with. Good value,good food, good service and a friendly atmosphere who could ask for more?
