I actually live in the neighborhood and it took me a while to visit this restaurant. It seemed more like a bar than a place for good food. But I'm glad I decided to try it. Yes, the food is expensive but I think it is worth the occasional splurge. It hands down beats any other food options in that small shopping center. The portion are good-sized. As someone else pointed out - the atmosphere is not kid-friendly. I took my 3-year-old and infant daughter for breakfast... and even then... it's too adult. But, I tell ya, I'm looking forward to a night when my husband and I can get a babysitter and eat and drink ourselves silly. We can then stumble home with full, happy bellies.
