| - Beautiful place!!! The building is impressive, service too. Rich uncle took me and the family, he frequents the place. We were there on a Tuesday evening and it's clearly a business kinda place. While all the tables were filled , we were 1 of a few 'families' out to dine. 80% were clearly people on business. I had the filet trio - It was presented quite well. The veggies were all served on plates alone and set in the middle , family style dining - we liked that very much. I was most impressed with the temp. of the food, I am quite particular about my food ( and plate if I can get it) being hot as possible when served. I suppose all 6 people are brought their plates at the exact same time by a 'team' , it helps ; ) ............. I am always impressed by that performance the few times I've been fortunate enough to receive it. ; )
The toppings of my trio were ALL expertly prepared, shrimp, foie gras, and the reduction. The actual meat was not my favorite part of the meal. It was good, chewy ( not tough at all) , but chewy. It was not the aged beef taste I expected from such an expensive restaurant. BUT - I am far from an expert on red meat as I eat it on rare occasions. While being a $$$$ place it was quite relaxed atmosphere and service, you don't feel like you should whisper and keep your napkin folded perfectly in your lap at all times.
great dining experience - would definitely return
but only when that 'rich uncle' treats.
