    Outstanding brunch featuring boozy breakfast beverages, including the spicy Dawson Bloody Mary ($11). The trendy Avocado Toast ($15) is a real standout with roasted tomato, scrambled eggs and pesto. The Chorizo Hash ($14) is pleasantly spicy, with house made sausage, chihuahua cheese, a perfectly cooked egg and pickled jalapeno. The massive Breakfast Torta ($16) has a tender, properly pounded pork cutlet, spicy beans, avocado, lettuce and egg.Dont forget the Bacon Flight ($20) with designer bacon offerings like blackstrap molasses, allspice and glazed cinnamon bacon.For slightly lighter, but plentiful portion, try the locally smoked Forman & Son salmon ($16) on a sweetly caramelized onion bialy (Polish bagel) with marinated beets, cucumber ribbons, dill cream cheese and thinly sliced onions. The only thing missing at The Dawson is a place for your mid-morning nap!

    Cool place! Hipster heaven but awesome beers and cocktails and I love the Reuben Burger! I love the space – it has a great vibe, and the staff is friendly and awesome. cheapwinefinder.com

    Writer. Excellent food, service and ambiance! Exceeded my expectations and can’t wait to go back! It’s apparent they take care in crafting their food. The flavors were perfect and unique as they really surprised the taste buds. The service was exceptional. You don’t get constantly stalked or hounded by the wait staff like in some restaurants. The wait staff really know the menu. You will not be disappointed with the food nor service!

    A bit bland. I really wanted to like this place. The place has a nice feel (albeit very loud) and the staff is very attentive. The food however, was underwhelming. I had the Chowder and the short rib sandwich. Both were very bland and really needed some seasoning. May try it again another time…

    Went here for dinner. Love how modern and lovely it is! The decor is understated but still very thought out. The food was great! The waitress did not ask us if this was our first time here which she should have since this place is new. We asked her to explain the menu and portions to is. The baked clams were amazing! Out cocktails were great, but minimal bc they were overloaded with ice. The pork shank was absolutely amazing while the octopus was underwhelming. The bread pudding was great also! Loved that the manager made his way around the tables and ask everyone how everything was. I will definitely go back.
