Handy Tacos


...The Pub Tacos are our newest greatest hits, served two per serving, making them imminently conducive to sharing with a friend over a few beers, and now that spring is finally upon us, we've decided to add a fish version, using fresh cod, battered and deep-fried, then topping it with a light, bright, and tasty medley of chopped red onion, fresh cilantro, and lime juice, offering sriracha sauce as well, now available it Dorrian's tableside....

Frequent Fryer, Pt. 1

...I proclaim great love for these crispy, crunchy, silky, tasty, nicely seasoned orbs and rings. The highlight of each bite, beyond the nuanced dichotomy of textures, is the actual belly-on clam itself, full of oceanic flavor and boasting it's own taste and texture properties.
