***HINT***
Always look at what the hostess of any restaurant you go to is wearing...this will help you with knowing if your attire is appropriate. If she's dressed up, you should be too. In fact if there is a hostess, that means you shouldn't be wearing sweatpants!
Anyway, the hostess was wearing heels! How does she do that??? The wait staff was excellent! A manager came over to ask how our experience was.
I got a drink called a cherry picker. DELISH! I'll have five.
The bread...AMAZEBALLS. This is a classy joint so the word AMAZEBALLS might be frowned upon to describe bread but...oh well. I am going to tell you the pretzel rolls are the best in the basket, next are the large triangle Parmesan crunchy bread things. Lastly we had some other not so terrific dinner roll of some kind. It was artful and attractive but not as appetizing as its looks would have you believe.
I got the Alaskan Halibut, my friends ordered the chicken and the steak. We were all very pleased! However, the place is a bit pricey for the portion. My halibut was a wallet busting $27.00. It only came with vegetables. This price does not include a salad or any more interesting hearty sides. I feel this plate was overpriced by a good $8-10. But I pay for the swanky this isn't Macaroni Grill!
Dessert. If you have read my other reviews which are all useful, funny and cool btw..you know me. We are BFF'S and you know me no likey the chocolate...but guess what I did...I ordered the chocolate cake. And it came with milk chocolate sorbet and I want more. It was so good. Hazelnut sauce was drizzled all over it. My friends ordered the chocolate cake too and the amaretto cheesecake. (As a cheesecake fan I thought it was edible but not spectacular).
There was not a single crumb left (save for the crumbs in front of me that the server CONSPICUOUSLY came by to wipe away between courses. Yes, I am a messy eater, you can't take me anywhere nice!) on our plates. We all ate everything (the portions are small, but at least you aren't wasting food and not going to where you are going overly full with a food baby.
My only complaint is, the online menu didn't entirely match what was on the actual menu, it needs to be updated to match the seasonal menu because I kind of wanted the chocolate pear torte which wasn't offered. (I swear I don't care that much for chocolate!!!) or the croissant bread pudding.
