The Freeman Restaurant!!!!

First of all Daniel found this place and showed it to me while we were roaming the city, but I went and used it for Mon and I's 6 month anniversary.

The place is hidden in an alley in the middle of the block which makes going to it feel like a scavenger hunt, and if you are going there for the first time, literally like discovering a new restaurant where no one has eaten.

It is decorated very rustic with stuffed animals and deer heads on the wall.

They describe themselves as rugged clandestine American Tavern with a simple and rustic inspired by old American traditions menu.

The place requires no reservation for parties less than 6 and can have a 30 min to 2 hour wait according to online reviewers.

We got there close 7:30 on a Sunday and they told us we would have to wait for 30 mins so we sat at the bar and in no less than 15 mins we had a seat.

The waiter was nice. The food was okay I would even say good but honestly nothing excellent like Katz is with pastrami or Shanghai cafe is with soup dumplings or shake Shack is with burgers.

Nevertheless, the homey experience and the feeling that you are somewhere else, is worth at least a visit. It is very Americana. I did not have appetizers or drinks but Allison says and I quote

" yeahthey have really good artichoke dip

like AMAZING

HEAVENLY "

Have fun, now go find it.
