| - First off, we called to make reservations for Friday night and no one answered so we thought we were out of luck. But, Friday morning the restaurant called us back and set up our reservation. They did warm of this on the web site, so was happy they followed through!
We showed up to the reservation ten minutes early and were seated immediately. Yeah! It is a set menu with wine pairing option. We did the set menu with wine pairing and my husband got the supplement, which was a duck leg that day. (Of course he did!!!). So, seeing as it was a set menu I was confused when the server asked what we were interested in?!? Is there a question?! I was confused by this.
Anyway, salad was first. It is served family style, Which I wasn't thrilled with. Just my preference, but I would rather see a plate with presentation. The salad was delicious with grilled romaine and cranberries! Yum! The wine they gave us as a pairing was ice cold! Not the way to serve wine! But once it was a bit more room temp, and you could taste it, the flavors went well.
Main course was again family style. (Meh). There were three veggies and a fish. All were delicious, different flavors put into each and the fish was perfectly cooked! The wine (also way too cold, but eventually warmed up) went with it well! Very impressed with the flavors and freshness!
Cheese course, which I was so excited for was meh! I just think the cheese this night was not my personal fav. The flavor combo was great, just not my favorite style.
Dessert was delicious. It wasn't a sweet dessert, but the dessert wine that accompanied it was matched well! Yum!
Overall the food was great! Just a few little things, like our weird server, and the family style, that weren't my fav, but would definitely recommend trying this place! It is a bit more expensive, but worth it for flavor and freshness!!
