CURRANT American Brasserie Restaurant Review

Great place for our Girls' Night Out! Start at Currant for drinks and dinner before heading to the theatre. The menu is diverse enough for those that want a small bite, salad, pasta dish or their fabulous burger! Service is always friendly & prompt! Definitely will return!!!

I might have been understanding if it was busy, but there were plenty of empty tables and a number of other servers, assistants, and bussers. This was our first visit to this...
