Angel was our bartender and they did a wonderful job of making recommendations on our first visit to Hanger 18. We had the chicken and rice soup (a bit salty) but tasty, the hummus and tzatziki appetizer was fantastic and we had the Hanger Salad with Chicken and that was delicious! We had to have a bite of the fruit cobbler even though we were stuffed! The martinis were excellent! Also need to mention the ambience is very welcoming and modern! Thank you for a great first visit!
