MRK Public

She had an Indian lentil stew and I had a Bánh mì sandwich, choice of chicken, pulled pork or tofu. Both meals were excellent! Menu could have been larger but if you're looking for appetizers and craft beers then this is your place. But we were just looking for dinner. (Photo shows grilled tofu)

The wait staff was excellent, the Bánh mì was good as well. The hard kombucha was flat and watered down. I’ve had Dal Tadka, Chana Dal, Masoor Dal, never had a Dal recipe that was a mix of lentil and kidney beans?

My brother and I walked into MRK Public and were blown away from the start. The daily soup was a scratch-made jalapeño corn chowder topped with fresh cilantro, cotija cheese, and long, crispy house-made tortilla strips. The flavor was incredible—creamy with just the right amount of heat, subtle yet right up front. Then came the short rib sandwich—DIVINE. The meat was juicy, shredded, and tender, layered with banana peppers, crisp lettuce, horseradish crème, and served on the most amazing toasted baguette with a bubble-crusted finish. Every bite was perfection. The fries? Gorgeous—stacked high and garnished with care. And the ambiance sealed it all in: a perfect surf-city vibe, fresh and upscale, yet still with the warmth of a weekly neighborhood spot. This is a meal and a place I will

One word, amazing! How have I not been here sooner? Epic gastropub. The Thai salad was a hefty portion filled with deliciousness. The bahn mi sandwich incredible with a smoked flavor on vegetables. I added tofu and fries on side. So good. Cody, our waiter was great, chill and pleasant. Chef Rynes creations are phenomenal. Will be back for sure! Cool variety music in background, homemade succulent vases on each table and succulent wall. Indoor and outdoor seating. Highly recommend! .

Incredible meal, great casual stop. Our normally somewhat pickey kids loved the chicken sandwich and chili fries. Both desserts were amazing! Service was top notch, can't recommend enough!
