| - Went here with the Supper Club in September for a 6:30pm dinner. This is now one of my fave restaurants.
Since this place doesn't serve alcohol but offers a BYOL option, one of the gals brought two bottles of white wine for our dinner. ($10 corking fee)
We started off with the Brie brulee ($12), which was warmed and served with a side of caramelized apples, toast, a sliced pear, a strawberry, and grapes. I could have eaten a plate of this and called it a meal; simple, but so delicious!
We ordered three entrees, the Alaskan halibut ($34), lamb shank ($24), and the pork tenderloin ($26). The halibut sat on a bed of mashed potatoes and was topped with a roasted red pepper sauce and shrimp - and was served with grilled vegetables. The fish was flaky, light, and tasted like heaven. The pork tenderloin was cooked and seasoned perfectly - very moist! I'm not a fan of lamb dishes, but the lamb shank was pretty flavorful - and not gamey as I expected it to be.
We usually skip dessert, but decided to try the chocolate torte (flourless). The torte was topped with fresh vanilla ice cream, a side of chocolate drizzle and raspberries - loved the mint used as decoration.
Our waitress was very attentive and made us feel at ease. The owner came by to talk to us and took some pics for us, before and after our dinner. The ambiance of this place is AMAZING - very European. There is even outdoor seating.
