Honey Butter Fried Chicken

Enjoy a classic American favorite done to perfection at Honey Butter Fried Chicken. Chicken is served with a tub of honey butter that you spread atop and let melt right in making for a delicious fried chicken experience. The farm-to-table sides are fresh and plentiful at well.  The bar includes a number of craft cocktail and beers.

EL Ideas

EL Ideas makes fine dining fun. This unique dining experience is unpretentious and surprisingly creative. An unforgettable ten-course tasting menu is presented by the kitchen team in an exciting and playful way. Guests are even encouraged to leave their table and visit the kitchen to see what is happening throughout the evening. A BYOB restaurant.
