Customer Reviews
Service exceptional. Super nice and chill vibe. Music good too. Park on the street. Good location. Great use of curtain to split small space. Great tasting vegan options. They can sub dairy in other dishes. Cabbage salad was my favorite. So flavorful. I wanted more. Tempura okra was a great twist, could’ve had a little more seasoning, but it was great and light. The bread and butter was perfect really tasty, don’t change a thing. Mushroom on Foccacia bread was delicious. Trout was so fresh but it had no seasoning. Great quality taste- not basic by any means. I’d order everything again and try something different. I like this place and would recommend. Small menu, wanted a different dessert than they had but all good. I’ll come back for sure-5-Star
Banshee has a great menu for both food and drinks. The offerings lean into quality over quantity at Banshee--not many options, but everything sounded amazing. My friend and I got one cocktail each, shared an appetizer and an entree. The maitake mushroom with shishito jam on toasted focaccia was amazing, though I heard that's a seasonal item. Unfortunately we were both too full to try the tres leches tiramisu, so we have a reason to come back. The atmosphere was cozy and intimate, excellent for small get togethers or one-on-one chats. Parking is on the street, much like any place in EAV, so it could take some time to find parking.
If only the food looked as good as the overly polished pictures! We’ve been here before, and while the food was passable then, this time it was an utter disappointment. I ordered the New York Strip again, and just like last time, they pre-sliced it before serving—why anyone thinks that's a good idea is beyond me. It was blood red—nowhere close to medium plus. IT'S ABSOLUTELY APPALLING THAT A MICHELIN BID COOK COULD LET SOMETHING SO OBVIOUSLY UNDERCOOKED LEAVE THE KITCHEN. They sent the same steak back, and of course, cooking an already sliced steak just dried it out completely. By the time I got my rubbery steak back, the potato rounds were stone cold, tasting like leftover McDonald’s fries. Honestly, the whole experience was a disaster. I won’t be back.
Fun, unique dishes. We really enjoyed the pepperoni butter served with fry bread and the fried artichokes. If you are looking for a flavourful vegetarian dish, the pappardelle will not disappoint.
