My first visit to Crop Bistro and I'll certainly be back.
The valet parking is very convenient especially in such a busy neighborhood. We had 7:15 pm reservations on a Saturday night and were seated as soon as we arrived. The place is beautiful! A large space in a former bank. My only complaint is how loud it is. With such high ceilings and nothing to muffle the sound, it was sometimes hard to hear my dinner companions.
I started with the wedge salad, my husband had a beet salad and our friends split the seared scallops. We all enjoyed our first courses and our friends agreed that their scallops were plenty to share.
For our entrees, I ordered the rolled pork, my husband had salmon, one friend ordered the pasta of the day ("a big pile of crop") and another friend had the braised short ribs. My pork was a little dry but I enjoyed the sides. Everyone else loved their dishes with no complaints.
Although we were all very full from dinner, we couldn't resist the dessert the server recommended -- buche de noel. Each couple split one and it was the perfect end to a wonderful dinner.
