Prohibition Taproom

I've been before, and that time was an awesome meal. This one, sadly, wasn't so great.

I got a duck confit salad. It was duck confit, over friseé. Usually, I don't like frisee, but I deferred to Prohibition's culinary judgment. The confit was very well-done and crispy - I'd call it overcooked. The whole experience was these tough pieces of duck, over a bed of friseé, and I kept getting little pieces of both of them caught in my throat. The whole experience was one that I wasn't happy to pay money for.

To their credit, the drinks were good. I got a Flemish sour ale - my favorite style.

We enjoyed this meal. I'll get into more detail but my only complaint was the heaviness of everything. Really heavy!

The fried green beans were great! obviously super fresh beans with great dipping sauce but man heavy dish. We got the pork sandwich and a grilled cheese special and both were really tasty. Whoever is in the kitchen definitely has a good notion of balance of flavors and got it done. Pork sandwich was actually soaked in its juices but I know that is actually like a thing they do in some places (or so Guy Fieri would have me believe) so I used a fork and knife and voila. Anyway, we enjoyed.

First experienced this bar as a tourist here at a conference - we stayed for 7 hours and filled the table with empty bottles.  Now that I live here, I still like the vibe.  Came for brunch on Father's Day - figured t wouldn't be as busy.  It wasn't and our server was fine, if a tiny bit slow.  I had the biscuits and gravy and LOVED it.  Their fries are hand cut and taste like the ones my mom used to make growing up.  I like this bar and hope to come back again soon.  This neighborhood has some positive changes going on.
