After their initial opening, the restaurant will host their first family-style New Orleans Brunch on September 8th. Guests can enjoy Creole favorites such as Biscuits and Gravy, Shrimp and Grits, and Beignets. The restaurant says diners should keep an eye out for one of three dimes hiding amongst the 1,000's of Lincoln's that decorate the lounge floors to win a complimentary shot.
The original Butcher & Boar in Minneapolis has been recognized as one of the Top 100 Steakhouses in America (OpenTable) and one the the Best Bourbon Bars in America (GoBourbon.com). You can learn more about the restaurant on their website.
