Probably one of my favourite restaurants Ive been to. I had read the reviews about the long waits if you dont make a reservation ( and they only reserve a portion of the restaurant, so walkin can be accomodated) My friend and I were in the front area for about an hour and a half, but the staff brought us drinks, and made sure we were ok until we were seated.
The atmosphere was a lot more casual that I had expected, the servers dressed in jeans and matching shirts. This is a plus for me of course, I love good food in a casual atmosphere. I had the rotisserie chicken which I could smell, and see from the open chicken. It was amazing. My friend had the lamb, and stated it was the best he's ever tasted. The creme brulee with Phil & Sebastian was perfect. Not too sweet and creamy without being sickly.
I love the fact that this place focuses on ingredients that are local, but the best thing is its not expensive! No more so than Earls, and the food is far superior.
