| - Ive heard some good things about this place so we decided to go check it out for dinner. Got to the restaurant at about 6:55pm on a Sunday (yea, I know.. peak time). We were told that the wait would be 30-40 minutes. So, we waited at the bar area with a drink and some truffle frites. The truffle flavor was pretty weak in the fries, though the aoli (regular and curry) were excellent. We ended up waiting for 50 minutes to an hour and that's where I'm dropping the rating. Usually restaurants over-estimate the wait time, so I was pretty disappointed that we had to wait even longer. By the time we got seated, I had finished all the truffle fries (with 1 other, but I ate most of it). I didn't want to order anything because I was so full. I ended up ordering the small brussels salad and the sweet corn soup, and my friend ordered the mussels du jour. They also have mussels with frites, but since we had eaten so many fries already he ordered the other one. Funny - his dish ended up coming with fries and we brought the whole thing home. My salad was great and the soup was not that great. Mussels du jour had chorizo, onions, and green peppers. The bit I tried tasted good. Overall, it was an okay experience and table service was good. Apparently, Sunday had half price bottles of wine though!
