Reservations are open for dinner only, lunch is walk ins only.

What’s in the name you ask? We don’t really know, other than the fact that it has a good ring to it.

Nothing really about this place makes much sense. Are we a butcher shop or a restaurant? Are we a butcher shop inside of a restaurant? Or a restaurant inside of a butcher shop?

In our spare time we like to build fires and cook food over wood, you can hire us to do that. We make all of our own charcuterie in house, and we’re determined to get better at that everyday.

How do two concepts operate together in harmony? We don’t really know yet, but we will work at it ‘til it’s seamless. One thing we do know, all of the meat served and sold between these four walls is strictly derived from whole animals butchered in-house, sourced from happy places.

    We knew it was expensive but we went ahead for a birthday meal. While making the reservation (place was quite empty at 6 on a Friday anyway?), they asked and I indicated it was a birthday meal. I guess we didn't buy enough (close to 95$) for some sort of acknowlegment of the birthday. Paying that much in a cafeteria atmosphere may be OK for some, but we will only do it once

    12/10 Tristan was welcoming, personable and knowledgeable. Food was next level, I’ve never had a steak that good before. We will be back every time we come to St Catharines. Thank you for a wonderful evening.

    Food was fabulous but timing on delivery of entrees was way off. My entree did not arrive until 10 minutes after my wife received hers and our side. She was half finished by the time mine arrived and side was cold by then. That was the only issue everything else was terrific.

    Sides were delicious. We were a party of 6 with 3 different cuts of steak. Porterhouse, hugely marbled Striploin and a Ribeye. All 3 were chewy. Very disappointing

    A very unique dining experience! I would highly recommend . It is like eating in a butcher shop. Very cool. The food was incredible however the cocktails were disappointing as they are a pre-mix rather than made on site.

    Food was cooked to perfection! Steak was so tender and moist, melt in your mouth. Great service, fantastic evening.
