- Crispy Brussels: We split a generous order of their perfectly roasted, savory Brussels sprouts.
- Alligator Tacos: The absolute surprise of the night! Do not shy away from the alligator tacos—they are surprisingly good, wonderfully seasoned, and a must-try for anyone looking to step slightly outside their culinary comfort zone.
