The old Nixta location has a wonderful new tenant that is certainly worth a visit.
I am a big fan of smaller menus, and we limited ourselves to a snack and a few shareables, so this is a place to definitely bring friends who like to try everything like I do. The dishes all seemed fairly small, but after three, we were all quite full.
My friend Beth heard that the best thing to order was the Onion Rings, which was a popular pick, but unfortunately, this is something I can't eat.

I immediately knew that I was going to choose the Pan Seared Gnocchi with Braised chicken and roasted mushrooms, spinach and sun-dried tomatoes. This dish was so tasty, I requested some pita bread to mop up the sauce!

That pita bread also came in handy for the sauce that the Lamb Merguez Meatballs were sitting in with shaved parmesan. We were disappointed they were out of the Braised Short Rib, but I was secretly happy to try these meatballs.

Another guilty pleasure was the Creamy Cheddar-Harissa Mac & Cheese with toasted breadcrumbs on top. I almost didn't want to share this one.

I definitely would like to go back to try a few of the other items such as the salad or large plate meals (that should probably also be shared), but I have a feeling I'd just reorder the same things because I enjoyed them all.
