New MUST-visit spot that just opened their doors and is located in Refinery 46 next to Black Circle Brewing. They serve up some seriously delicious comfort food eats, like tofu tacos, quesadillas, spicy steak sammy, and a delightful Chicken Parm. The chicken parm is served on a perfectly toasted Kaiser roll, thick & juicy breaded chicken, just the right about of Mariana and a huge slab of gooey cheese.

We have been excited about this for weeks now and it totally surpassed expectations. Portuguese Steak Sandwich is a must and the Grilled Cheese with Tomatoes went over so well with the kiddos! Takeout was fast and very well wrapped for travel. Will be back soon!

I love visiting here for a bite when I go to BC or Loom! I had the Chicken Parm Sandwich tonight and it's always a good time. But they took the Portuguese Steak Sandwich out and I miss it so much, it was my favorite! Bring it back please!!

This is such a cool place! We went to The Black Circle to watch The Vanella Boy perform on September 29th and went over to check out the other side. What a vibe! Pinball machines, awesome art on the wall and delicious food. I got the chicken quesadilla, yum!

Got a fried pork sammich on special that was absolutely killer. A couple of other regular menu items were not available, but it didn’t matter. Service was good and food was top-notch. Highly recommend recommended.

Came here to fuel before an event at black circle. It was clean and had quick service. Inside has some seating, but plenty more outside where there's a big lawn shared with black circle. The tacos were good, but nothing special & on the smaller side. One complaint is that I asked if I could add some cheese to my taco & was willing to pay, but I guess due to how they ring things up that wasn't an option.

The chicken parm sandwich was perfect. Great small menu items and options for anybody. Wasn’t a lot of seating as the space is somewhat small, but went next door to grab a beer and eat. Lots of outdoor seating around black circle and beacon. Highly recommend for a quick bite and supporting local.

I am so excited to have a good food option while attending a show or other event at Black Circle. Before visiting for the first time, I knew I needed the fried bologna sandwich... and I was not disappointed. They grill a thick slab of bologna until it's nice and crispy and serve it on a toasted bun. Make sure you add cheese to it - just trust me.
