| - Visited here on Monday, April 26, 2010.
This was my 2nd time to this location, I am a frequent visitor to the Thousand Oaks spot, and have been to the Beverly Hill location once.
As usual, we grabbed a high top table in the bar area. We find we like to indulge as we split plates, have a few drinks and enjoy the music and bar scene.
First the food:
We split a caprese salad, had the wonderful bread basket (love the pretzel rolls), split a chefs cut (20oz.) NY Strip, Lyonnaise potatoes. All was top notch as we expected. Reason for 4 vs 5 stars was, they brought a bone in rib eye in error, which went back. The Strip they brought was a bit rare but cooked on the plate. The potatoes were very thick and dry, not sure if I remember them always being that way. I would not order them again.
In fairness, they did give up a complimentary dessert - warm butter cake with fresh creme. Bad news is we ate it and both felt over indulged.
The Bar:
Was 6pm when we arrived, and very quiet. By 7:30 the younger woman / older men crowd started to take shape. The music was very nice and rounded out the Bar scene.
Overall a fun evening out.
