by Monique T. on So I went here with a girlfriend for lunch and I was surprised the food was good! I've seen this place several times and always wanted to try it! The service is good...the waitress...bless her heart...dealt with me "what should I get because I'm starving" phase! She was a trooper!! Kuddo's to her! Then she said that we would walk around in the back. The "club" part when the tables aren't there...man! How beautiful! I can see that place packed at night! She said they play house and that the Friday night line up is the best! Also, if you eat dinner there they will give you free admin to the club on Friday and Saturday's!! Sweet! I guess I'll have to come back to experience the night part!
by Holli Laberge on Kudos to Coda for a lovely dinner for my friends and me last Saturday! The restaurant space hasn't changed much from its Levende days and was empty as I walked in early for our 7:15 reservation. I chose to sit at the bar and enjoy a cocktail while waiting for my wonderful but punctuality-challenged friends (j/k love you). The bartender was super friendly and just chatty enough - he made me a refreshing BaCu sour and it was exactly as he had described, "like drinking a spa". The cucumber, lemon, and basil flavors sweetly masked the vodka and reminded me that I desperately need a pedicure. When my friends arrived, we were scrunched into a corner booth (had added 2 people at the last minute) and started mulling over the menu. We ordered up more drinks, both kinds of fries (plain and sweet potato - WOOT!), and two of the brussel sprouts salads to split. I got the Buena Vista cocktail on recommendation from the bartender but MAN it was spicy. Since I am a Food Network fanatic, I know the serrano chili in my drink has a Scoville rating of HELLA HOT, but the drink was actually really good with food. The fries were excellent and we got the housemade aioli (super), ketchup (cinnamon-y? nutmeg-y? coulda licked the bowl) and guiness mustard (spicy and grainy - yum). The brussel sprout salad with bacon and poached egg is the way brussel sprouts should be served forever and ever, amen. Our mains ranged from ribs to burgers to scallops to coffee-crusted pork loins to the chevre and pear ravioli (which I got). Everything was REALLY GOOD. The ravioli was smothered in pesto and topped with bitter microgreens that offset the sweet pear/cheese filling. The pork loin was awesome and its Jameson sauce was mopped up by everyone within arm's reach. The ribs were tender and super flavorful. We couldn't stomach dessert (ok, maybe I could have, but I was trying to maintain some dignity), but the selection looked decent. We didn't get to stay for the music, but I would come back here when a good band is playing and try more of the menu (or order the exact same things since they were all very good). Good luck, Coda! Hope you're around for an encore meal.
