Earlier this month, Sac Bee restaurant critic Blair Anthony Robertson said he loved the bar program at Pour House, but found that its food still needed to find its footing. Now, Sac Mag's Cathy Cassinos-Carr gives her two cents.
Pour House, the new bar and eatery at 19th and Q in midtown (formerly the site of Whiskey Wild), just might have what it takes. Starting with an interior warmed by weathered wood, exposed brick and stunning Edison lights, Pour House is a come-one, come-all type of establishment that strives to please nearly everyone...
The kitchen at Pour House is operated by Coast to Coast Sandwiches, which draws largely from its food truck lineup of comfort foods. My pulled pork sandwich and sweet potato fries were pleasing enough, but the straightforward fare (salads, sandwiches, burgers), while tasty, doesn?t match up to the ambitious libations quite as well as it could. I have high hopes that Coast to Coast will feel freer to experiment over time to bring diners something unexpected.
Sounds like the verdict is pretty unanimous. I've talked to the guys who run Coast to Coast Sandwiches a few times, and I have confidence that they'll be able to turn their good food into great food.
