Peyote

Peyote Restaurant Review:

Corner Bar Management founder Ryan Doherty has brought Peyote, the company’s latest boutique restaurant, to Fergusons Downtown. The décor features vibrant colors via a Palm Springs-inspired open-air patio with desert-hues, a 3D-mapped LED bistro-light canvas with 1,500 lights that respond to music and a cactus and succulent garden. The upscale brunch and dinner menu includes heirloom tomato summer squash tart; mini shrimp toast topped with wild smoked salmon roe; grilled pork belly eggs Benedict; risotto with grilled corn, sunflower seeds, leeks and almond milk; and plant-based JUST egg quiche with spinach, caramelized leeks and mushroom in a non-dairy pie crust. The cocktail menu, designed by former Southern Glazer’s head of whiskey education Max Solano, includes creations such as Hey, Smokey!, a 30-day barrel-aged cocktail with bourbon, apple brandy, Aperol, Amaro Nonino, and orange and tobacco bitters smoked with a proprietary wood blend.
