Sixth Engine

I know y'all are closed now, but I wanted to let you know how much my fiance and I enjoyed Sixth Engine. We especially loved the deviled eggs, the hush puppies and eggs benedict at brunch. We loved the atmosphere here, and it was perfect for meeting friends or taking out of town guests. I'll miss the outdoor patio also. I'm very sad that you closed, but I wanted to let you know how much we liked it here.

This place is awesome! Went here for brunch with some friends and wanted to get mimosas. Problem is I can't drink orange juice due to the acidity level. Asked if they had apple juice and they didn't. Then about 10 minutes later they did! They went out of their way to accommodate me and get apple juice JUST for me!!!!! Can't wait to go back! Great food and great drinks!!!!

I love Sixth Engine's rich and unique history and the food isn't bad either. Initially I was drawn to Sixth Engine because of the cauliflower appetizer but I've tried quite a few other items on the menu as well. Each time I go into the restaurant it's always busy but the service is pretty friendly and quick. A rundown of everything I've tried: Cauliflower bites: These are lightly battered and fried and tossed in a Schezuan-style sauce. The portion is GIGANTIC for $11. I mean, I guess a head of cauliflower probably costs $2 but this was still a great deal. And it was delicious. Win-win. Cheese curds: SO GOOD ORDER THEM NOW! These are also a pretty decent size and the dipping sauce is a little spicy. They're fantastic. Cheese dip: The dip is pretty good itself, but the chips could use a little work. The chip is the vessel which carries the gooey, magical cheese into your mouth, and I really feel like it is important for the chip to be delicious as well. The chips were okay, which brought my review on this item down overall. Brussel sprouts: A little spicy but a decent portion, albeit an expensive one. I usually get these when I'm craving brussel sprouts because they also have bacon in them. Service is really friendly and efficient. I haven't been to the bar to try the drinks but that's next on my list and hopefully I'll be able to update this review when I do!

Excellent spot for Brunch in the Chinatown area. Not too crowded, decent prices and massive portions. My only complaint would be the lack of variety on the menu, but every dish at our table turned out great! They also have bottomless mimosas or bloody mary's for $15 if you're looking for a boozy brunch.

Our server was not great, but the food... The food was incredible! We started with drinks (compliments to the bartender, too!), and an appetizer of deviled eggs made with Old Bay and topped with fried oysters. Yum! I had the green salad with the house filet steak on top, and my friend had just the filet, which came with some tasty vegetable sides. The steaks were cooked to perfection, tender and delicious! The greens were yummy. We also split an order of Brussels sprouts, roasted with maple, bacon, and sriracha... Oh, my... They were to die for! We ate outside on the patio and had a great time people and dog watching. Would most definitely go back here!

The clam chowder was delicious. I prefer thick chowder and this is thin but it tasted like real New England clam "chowda". The chorizo stuffers are superb! The lobster rolls are exceptional! If you are familiar with Maine/New England lobster and you want to have the real deal, this is the right place to have it. Beer selection is very good, draft and bottles. They have a very nice outdoor seating area. Service is excellent.
