STEPCHLD

First time visiting STEPCHLD and I am a big fan of this place. Very friendly and hospitable staff and the food is a slam dunk. The Cod tacos had a big piece of cod that was crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. So much flavor added with the guacamole, slaw, and jalapeño sauce. The main course I had was the Wagyu short rib pasta and it was fantastic! Plenty of pasta with great flavor from the short rib. I need to stop in here again so I can try other items on the menu. Great food and vibes at STEPCHLD!

Ok secretly this be the best burger in the city. Perfect greasy, too cheesy ratio. They do the “smash” burger as good as anyone. Also amazing staff, had great service.

The food was pretty good, and my waitress was great. However, literally 1 minute after I signed my check and was discussing plans with my family where to go next, the hostess rudely came to our table and said, “just so you know, we need this table for a reservation” which was off-putting after spending $275 on drinks, apps, food, and dessert. Won’t be coming back; hope you have a better experience if you decide to go.

I ate at Stepchld this past summer and really enjoyed the experience. The ambience was perfect and the food was delicious. I got the Lavender Nori Shrimp and the flavor was so interesting - I would definitely order it again.

Spontaneously met our daughter for a light dinner and a glass of wine at the bar since the restaurant was full, but we were perfectly comfortable and felt welcomed and respected. Really loved the share Brussels sprouts and the mussels...

I went in knowing the food would be great (through word-of-mouth from friends), but it absolutely exceeded my expectations. The dishes looked somewhat simple at first but the flavors and textures work together in delightfully complex ways. We split the Brussels sprouts to start, and had the lavender nori shrimp and Ethiopian birria tacos for mains. The serving sizes were good, but the quality made me wish I had more as soon as we were finished. The staff were attentive and friendly, and the atmosphere was intimate without feeling crowded or too loud at all.
