Good Company in the Grove is part cocktail bar, part gastropub
Part cocktail bar, part gastropub, the Good Company experience is first class from your first sip of the complimentary aperitif that begins your evening to your last bite of the decadent flagship Good Burger.
A juicy Creekstone Farms patty made with a blend of brisket and chuck is topped with jaw-droppingly thick-cut bacon, Cooper white American cheese, pickles, a fried egg and the irresistible Good Sauce. Although the burger is the undeniable star, the tight menu of salads and small plates shouldn’t be brushed aside. The roasted Brussels sprouts Caesar is a hearty starter, with lemon-pecorino Caesar dressing, crispy quinoa, and mixed greens with a snowcap of shaved pecorino. The modestly named preserved mushrooms are a favorite with sweet-sour bursts of golden raisin mostarda and fresh green onion on a super-creamy bed of goat cheese polenta that had us licking our plates.
When the owners also run a boutique ice company, Good Ice, the drink menu is not to be ignored. Bask in the summer patio vibes with the Barrio Tropical, which features a blend of rums, cream and tropical fruits, or keep it classic with the Summer Glory, Good Company’s clean, bright and citrusy seasonal take on a martini.
