| - I've eaten here twice in the past 30 days. Obsession? Maybe. But when you consider that the first experience CHANGED MY LIFE, it's no surprise. I had ordered the filet au poivre, truffled mac 'n cheese, and the grilled beets with burrata. Everything was amazing, especially the service. My martini was impeccable.
Why then have I given it only four stars? Well, the next time I returned I ordered precisely the same things, with the exception of the martini and beets. Don't judge me, I'm on a budget.
My filet this second time was lukewarm when served, my wine tasted like it had sat in a decanter for far too many weeks... Yes, weeks... And the au poivre sauce this time was a tad watery. The mac n' cheese was spot on, however! As was the service.
I can't complain though. For a restaurant that had me paralyzed with delight after the first bite, I'll allow a temperature flaw once.
I can't wait till next time! (which, given my record as of late, should be any day now)
