    PLEASE NOTE: This is a festival seating. Seating is set to 5:30 p.m. Enjoy a tantalizing array of appetizers with a 5-whisky flight. THE KOVAL METHOD KOVAL Distillery crafts a line of whiskey, gin, and specialty spirits using unique organic grains and signature “heart cut” techniques with only the absolute best quality distillate. Known around the world for its bright, approachable flavors and unprecedented creativity and design, KOVAL has been the recipient of over 100 international awards. GRAIN-TO-BOTTLE KOVAL believes that the best spirits must come from the best ingredients, and crafts its entire line from scratch using a grain-to-bottle approach. Every step of the process is closely monitored and managed by KOVAL — from sourcing grains harvested by trusted farmers to milling, mashing, distilling, aging, and bottling on-site. FORGING AHEAD KOVAL means 'smith' or 'blacksmith' in many Eastern European languages; however in Yiddish, it has the added meaning of someone who 'forges ahead.' KOVAL is an homage to Sonat's great grandfather who earned it as a nickname when he dared to move from turn-of-the-century Vienna to the US to start a new life from scratch, while it also honors Robert's grandfather, from whom he learned to distill, as his family name is Schmid, the German equivalent of Koval. A NEW WAVE OF CRAFT SPIRITS KOVAL’s founders have also used their experience and knowledge to educate thousands of people in the art of craft distilling. Through their consulting with Kothe Distilling Technologies, they have helped set up hundreds of new distilleries all around the world, ushering in a new wave of craft spirits internationally. They serve as ambassadors for the industry, maintaining close ties with various trade organizations, special interest groups, and government officials to ensure that independent craft brands continue to receive support and opportunities to thrive around the world.

    We had a delicious dinner at Porterhouse Bourbon & Bones this past weekend. It is in an excellent location, and beautifully laid out. Our wonderful servers Alonso and Cynthia not only provided superb service and recommendations, but showed great pride in the incredibly diverse and tantalizing menu from appetizers to main courses with a nice selection of steaks to other creative options. There was a long list of bourbons and scotches, as well as a well rounded wine list by the glass or bottle. After cocktails, we shared a delicious Maryland blue crab with a nice sauce and grilled corn. Their Baby Gem Caesar salad was excellent with light, fresh croutons, shaved cheese and an exquisite dressing ~ truly a gem. The Prime Filet and Wagyu New York Steak were delicious and prepared as ordered. Alonso explained the prep of the Creamed Spinach with Blue cheese in a light Mornay sauce and the nice fried fingerlings with tasty bacon lardons. The En Route Russian River Pinot Noir went well with our dinner. So why not 5 stars? In any restaurant experience, the evening starts with the front staff. When my wife checked in, the first encounter with Kennedy the hostess at the front was impersonal, unenthusiastic, robotic and rude. We had reservations for a booth because of her bad back, but she was brought back to a small table she couldn’t maneuver into even with 5 open booths. Kennedy reluctantly went back to the front. When I walked in, my wife was left standing at the table. When I saw the situation, and inquired at the front, Kennedy was consulting with the French host. After waiting a few more minutes with no recognition or acknowledgment, she was sent back to reseat us at a booth saying we had to leave by 7:00. Fortunately the rest of our dining experience was enjoyable, relaxing and delicious. I am sure Porterhouse Bourbon & Bones would want to know of an employee who does not represent them well. We look forward to dining at Porterhouse again.
