    My husband and I had a wonderful dinner at Red Owl Tavern while staying at the Kimpton Hotel Monaco. We shared the Carnivore's Feast, and it was every bit as delicious as it was unique. It was such a fun way to sample four different types of meat, and each one was flavorful and perfectly prepared. We also ordered the roasted potatoes, which were excellent, although the feast itself was so generous that we barely made a dent in them! The cocktails were well-crafted and complemented the meal nicely. The staff was friendly, attentive, and helped make the entire experience enjoyable. Overall, it was a fantastic evening, and we would happily dine here again.
