service at 6pm, 7pm, and 8pm
Our tasting menu changes often, allowing us to share our tastes and abilities with the public as they evolve. This time our tasting menu might be inspired by street food around the world, but next time it might be re-imagined classic Italian flavors - or a fusion of multiple culinary inspirations. We are constantly learning, altering, experimenting, and - most importantly - having fun. For the diner, the experience is always a brand new one.
The floor is handled by us cooks, too. We design the courses and run them to your table. This makes for an environment that's energetic and spontaneous. The barrier between chef and diner is non-existent. We charge an automatic 18% service fee that goes directly to everyone who co-operates the restaurant, no matter their role. Everybody gets a share in the restaurant's profits because without /us there is no just/us.
The Team
NATE (THE CLUBFOOT) DOCKEN
THE DUNGEON MASTER
On a dark and cold Tuesday evening, Nate removed his sword from the Iron Viscount, breathing heavily and feeling the fatigue from a long, and near fatal struggle. Wiping the blood on a nearby banner, he could feel the power emanate from the Viscount. Then suddenly a bright flash of light streaked from his iron clad chest, and into Nate's. After a brief moment, the power was absorbed and it was over, and Nate turned to his loyal army and spoke:
"I'm gonna go open a restaurant because I literally have no idea why this happened, who you guys are, or what this is."
Emily "Nickname pending" Hagen
WE'RE WORKING ON IT, YOU CAN'T RUSH IT
Emily has many years in the restaurant industry, and is excited to be apart of our shenanigans. She's a natural jack-of-all-trades, a hard af worker, and a great friend. She may look innocent, but trust us… she’ll kick your ass if she needs to. Don’t test her, folks.
SAMANTHA (THE BRUJA) ROILAND
RESIDENT WITCH (BUT NOT THE WEIRD KIND)
Samantha learned her trade at a bunch of restaurants in Minneapolis and St. Cloud. She is the house badass of awesome street food! She's got crazy good attention to detail, unique tastes, and will likely turn you into a frog & stick you in the stew. She’s spent a lot of time learning about (and eating) Latin cuisine and it really comes through in her dishes.
Mona "Omni" Negasi
Mona has not only a long and well established career in the restaurant industry, especially in Lowertown, but is an incredible visual artist as well. She's in charge of social media, curating the art selection, designing our graphics & menus, and generally most of the artsy things in our space. Artists, give her a shout!
Lil' Ol' JESSE Chil'
HOBO SUPREME
Jesse's background is well-rounded, but he really loves East African cuisine, especially that of Eritrea. He started as a baker and worked his way around the kitchen for years after. He's also a rad comic book artist (ask him for his books, he'd love to sell them to you), and can throw down hard in any MTG game. You might hear us all scream "INFORMER!" because of him.
