Armitage Alehouse

Armitage Alehouse was one of the only Hogsalt restaurants Dallas hadn’t been to, so while Makai was in Wisconsin for a few days, I surprised him with a reservation. Even getting the reservation is kind of a big deal. I had to set my alarm to 8:55 two weeks out. Spots were sold out by 9:05 each day.
Armitage Alehouse is modeled after an English pub, but the food and decor were really escalated (and the prices too!). We had fish and chips and a curry, of course, but the star was the pot pie that was baked with a bone full of marrow in the middle.
