Checking in with the Friday review today the boys have decided to polish up the old hammer and drop it Oh-So gently on OHSO, the new spot on Indian School. You want highlights, we got ‘em:

To our pleasant surprise, they were offering $5 pitchers of about half the beers during the day – great opening move to get people hanging out longer than a pint. We ordered a few beers and the entire small plate side of the menu. Priced from about $8-$15, these items included “shrimp fritter kebabs” (skewers of fried shrimp that were not fritters in our opinion because fritters imply something ground and combined and formed into a circle and then fried, these were just shrimp), “crispy calamari and spicy seared ahi” (not crispy, not spicy, and not good), ribs “smoked out back” which were great but tasted like store-bought Lloyd’s (and the smell of smoke was nowhere to be found), gnocchi Bolognese that was a Hamburger Helper doppelganger, some goopy hummus dip that came out with that dark top layer like it had been sitting, and some guac which was pretty good actually.

And…

The grilled cheese tasted good, but we wished they had propped it up so the underside didn’t get so soggy. And the pork belly arepas were inedible – the arepa itself was like an old English muffin and the pork was bland.
