    Beautiful space with covered outside patio. I enjoyed the menu but was a little put off by the door blowing my menu off the table whenever the door opened. Overall, the service was prompt and good. From cocktails to apps to mains, everything was well prepared and tasty. I had the chicken and waffles (savory) and my sister had the pancakes. Delicious! Definitely try out this locale!

    Of course it was unusually loud as it was Valentine’s Day and everyone was out celebrating. We were near the front door so it was a bit chilly each time the door opened. They did have a great photo op of red balloons and were very accommodating about taking your picture. Always a good experience at III Forks. (Fave place since it’s where my husband proposed to me years ago).

    We had the most amazing time at hidden flask. I highly recommend any chance that you have to make a reservation take it. You won’t get a better drink, experience, or view of the city where it’s still later back and not overly crowded.
