PRAIRIE

Cute eclectic little restaurant. The owner is super sweet and sent my little girl home with some homemade peanut butter cookie dough. Thank you!

Made same day reservations for 2 via open table for a Wednesday night. I arrived promptly for my 6:30 pm reservation. My friend was still looking for parking but I was seated right away. I was the only person in the restaurant at that time but by the time my friend arrived - closer to 6:50 pm, it was half filled.

Our server was lovely and attentive but I never felt rushed (even though we stayed until 10:30 pm) even while I was waiting for my friend.

We ordered the flash grilled avocado, sour cream and onion burrata, puntarelle green goddess, pappardelle and dessert. The avocado had a lovely citrus flavor to it and was lightly sprinkled with salt and pepper.

The burrata dish came with three pieces of toast and a generous helping of burrata. We could taste the sour cream and onion without it overpowering the burrata.

Neither of us have had puntarelle before but it was a nice hearty salad with a bit of crunch due to the puntarelle itself.

Not pictured was the pappardelle which we liked (the pasta was cooked perfectly) but we forgot to add the chanterelle sauce which is $3 extra. I wish our server reminded us but it’s not her fault as it is written next to the pasta itself. We just both overlooked.

Since we were celebrating my friend’s belated birthday, we got the Yuzu Ice Box Pie with Huckleberry sauce. Yuzu has a very distinct flavor (which I enjoy). It was like a Yuzu meringue pie. I had written on open table that we were celebrating a birthday but when the dessert came out there was no candle even though we saw others at the restaurant celebrating. It wasn’t a huge deal but our server came by later with two flutes of champagne to apologize for the oversight. I thought was very sweet of her and more than made up for it.

I did notice that they have a Yuzu beer, yuzu soda and a Yuzu whiskey, so for Yuzu lovers, there’s plenty try. And although we were not vegetarians, we happened to end up eating only veggies but everything was yummy. I would definitely come back to try the other items and drinks!

The restaurant filled up completely and I believe most people had reservations. It does get loud at times. At one point, I felt like I almost had to shout to my friend sitting less than three feet in front of me.

Great service. Food was unique. The Berkshire pork was amazing. The steak was not; cooked medium, and the server didn't ask how we liked it... Not good for a $75 piece of meat.

The chicken legs are so tasty! Also, the burrata and the fish roe dish - there is some kind of homemade cracker that is unreal! Lots of windows make for a really nice setting - I went with a girlfriend but would be perfect for a date.

Wow. The food, wow. Absolutely love this place. Got lucky on a Friday night and managed to get a high top in the bar area. We started with the Bone Marrow, followed that with the meat balls, and finished with the Pappardelle. All there were amazing. The grilled bread and the flatbread were also wonderful.
