| - I hesitated before rating this place-I think it has the potential for a 4 or 5 star restaurant, but our experience was only a 3 star. We had a restaurants.com coupon for the place, so we certainly got a good value for our money, however, if we had paid full price, I would have been disappointed. We decided to do the tasting menu, and it was the wrong choice. In doing the tasting menu, your various courses are chosen for you. As such, we got the very standard appetizers and entrees, and missed out on trying the more adventurous choices. The food was all very good, but we felt like for the price we paid for the tasting menu, we could have just made our own choices from the menu and paid about the same price. So to those reading this review I would DEFINITELY recommend not doing the tasting menu. The highlight of the meal food-wise was dessert-We were treated to little mini apple tarts with butterscotch ice cream, homemade nut bars, and little mini Irish Carbomb cupcakes (they were in the process of adding those to the menu, they should be on there now: ORDER THESE! They were amazing.) Our server was a total flake. She would come and ask us about things, leave right in the middle of talking to us, say she'd be right back and then not come back. She was terrible. The chef did bring our dessert out and talked to us about what the dessert included, so we liked that. We really liked the ambiance of the place, kind of a studio 54 glam vintage sort of feel. My fiance and I agreed we'd try this place again, and with a different server, and making our own selections from the menu, we think this could be a great experience.
