Given the reviews I was hoping to find another CLE go-to spot but sadly this didn't do it for me. I went on a busy friday night to celebrate our anniversary. The building was cool, looking like a nightclub from the outside, with the old bank sign on the door, and with an old bank interior with sky high ceilings and cool architecture. The awesome interiors with the sky high ceilings did nothing for the noise level of the restaurant and I had problems hearing my bf the whole night. We took a look at the menu and wanted to order everything.
The service was good and we decided to forgo the tasting menu for more promising dishes. Foie gras brulee to start, sea scallops for me, and the special roasted pheasant for my bf. This is probably my personal taste, but I think I prefer my foie gras more on the savory side. The pairing with a cinnamon roll-like bread and dark chocolate mousse didn't do it for me in the long run, I think it would have been a good idea as an amuse bouche but not as a whole appetizer. My scallops were cooked well but it was drowning in sauce to the point where the sauce threatened to overtake my food. My bf's pheasant dish was similar where it had too much going on the plate to be good.
The experience wasn't bad but it definitely wasn't what I was hoping for either. Nothing really stood out for me, the three stars are for the foie because it was probably a misorder on my part.
