I get a lot of flack for being over-generous in my reviews. It is well deserved. I am an easy grader and I grade on a curve. But I never write flowery reviews to get free stuff. There's another reason for my madness and Nosh & Swig is a perfect example of a place needing some slack. A food snob could roll into here and completely trash the place. And I admit, the edges are rough, the execution is not perfect. But this place has potential and it has SOUL. What I mean by soul is, the owner was there on a slow Weds night (it was just me, this guy, and another couple) and he was chatting it up at the bar.  I just assumed he was the bartender but then he started recommending stuff on the menu and talking about the recipes. Wow. It was obvious this guy loves what he does and has a passion for his business. \n\nThe DRINK: They have a good drink menu, and it seems they have a full \""bar\"". I guess the better way to describe it is they served hard liquor. I got their non-alcoholic blueberry mint lemonade and it was delicious. It was huge (I couldn't finish the whole thing), served in a mason jar with a side of crack popcorn. Seriously, the stuff was so addictive, I believe he does sprinkle crack on it. \n\nThe FOOD: I was starving, so I didn't read up on Yelp reviews when I came here. I thought it was just another Nevada style pub. Noep. It definitely has a bar-feel, especially with the owner chatting it up with the locals, but I'd say it's more a casual restaurant that serves tapas. I got their elotes with garlic butter and cilantro. AMAZING! I eaten my share of elotes but these are different. The sauce they smother it in is pure tantric sex. Yeah.. that's right. \n\nNext I got a side of nachos o'brien (peppered pork.house potato chips, dublin cheddar. stewed tomatoes ) and a side of Korean BBQ wings (kimchi spiced chicken, Shoyu reduction). The nachos were ok, but the chicken wings were good, nice contrast of sweet and spicy. \n\nThings I didn't like were the chairs, they were too low for the \""bar\"". The prices are a tad high for what you get, but they do have happy hour Tues-Sat from 3-6. I have no idea what that entails, call to see what they offer. And the food got a little messy. It's beautifully presented but difficult to eat. \n\n+stars for the great, friendly service, the innovative menu and just an overall vibe of awesomeness. I want to come back and try their Dr. Pepper ribs. That sounds amazing.
