| - Visited the restaurant amongst a group of 20 co-workers on Wednesday night.
We have our priorities after a day of meetings, so off to the bar we went after racing each other downtown. Came in during happy hour, which was nice for a pre-dinner cocktail. I had my beloved beer, went for a 12oz stout for $5 and a coworker got a Fuhgetaboudit. She loved it so much, she ended up ordering two more.
Dinner and appetizers came out promptly and everything was delicious. There was a shared appetizer of bacon wrapped dates and pretzels, dates got a raving review.
I had roasted cauliflower and steak tartar. Rest of my party ordered pretty much everything else on the menu and everyone was happy. Shrimp scampi smelled heavenly and pork chop looked amazing.
Had to have a house margarita, which was nice and strong, and also made me forget about looming fourth quarter.
I loved the atmosphere and most of all the owner, Roger, who was ever present in the dining room and engaged with our group all night. I especially appreciated Roger expressing his concern that food for our party would come out at varied times, we acknowledged that it was perfectly acceptable, and he coordinated it beautifully. Nice contrast to Public School we visited night before, where to our disappointment some in our party were already eating, while others barely had a chance to place their orders.
Space was great too, open and plentiful, nice updated decor.
Soundtrack could not have been better for my taste, blending Amy Winehouse and Frank Sinatra.
All in all, nice place worth checking out, welcome to DT!
