I go to Pacifico a lot, and so was excited about Gravy opening last year. But when we first went it was so bad. I mean, bad. But recently we've been going back a lot. It's so much better now. The menu is tighter, the portions are huge, and they've figured out what to capitalize on instead of doing it all. It's super air conditioned and they've got great big booths so it's nice for a relaxed dinner out. I love the Portobello Sandwich and the Blue Plate Fried Chicken, Fried Steak, and Prime Rib are delicious. Best fries ever. I'm starting to recognize a lot of the staff, and they're hipsterish, but very curteous and relaxed. Now they've got Trout outside, the Beer Garden type thing they've converted their back patio into, and it's really nice to go out there for a cheap beer after dinner. The guys who own that corner are doing a lot of things right, it just takes them some time to smooth things out.
Alright, I live down the street from Gravy, and I must say that I really enjoy both the ambiance and the food. Maybe it's because I'm originally from the South, but to me nothing beats their chicken fried steak, or the fried chicken. And in case you're not in the mood for anything with the word "fried" in the title, the veg. chili is also great. Wasn't too happy with the bbq ribs though. The only downfall of this place is that they don't have "authentic" sweet tea. You can't have a restaurant with a Southern flair without it. Take note from the Soul Spot just around the corner...that is REAL sweet tea.
