Holy smokes this place is good, like michelin star good.
Me and 3 coworkers arrived around 6pm and they actually had a seat available immediately but it got super busy by the time we left.
The service was fantastic, food arrived within minutes of ordering, drinks came extremely fast, the second a plate was finished they were there to clean up and keep things going.
Food is meant to be shared here but you can certainly just make a meal out of the items. We ordered at least 10 dishes, all pictured.
The beef tartar and the bacon wrapped dates were my favorites along with the desserts.
All the dishes and ingredients were purposefully selected and tasted delicious together.
I don't know if there was a single bad thing to say about this place.

Great service and food.
All the dishes were great, the drinks were serve just right and the service was wonderful.
I have been to restaurants all over the world and this one is staying on the list to revisit.
Be sure to try the 36 day aged pork chop and the bone marrow smear.

I sat alone at the bar and had a memorable experience watching everyone work in the open kitchen.
I even saw the pork chop I ordered be plated right in front of me. It was delicious- a healthy char on the outside, tender on the inside.
The crunchy pastry flakes provided a nice contrast with the soft potatoes.
There was no shortage of flavor in every bite with the combination of both applewood smoked meat and an apple cider sauce. I also started with the shrimp and avocado salad which may have been the most flavor-packed salad I've ever had. The service at the bar was simple and effective; not in-your-face and always there when you need it. I highly recommend The Purple Pig.
