| - Simply put, the food here is excellent. The menu changes on a daily basis, so there isn't much point going into the specifics. Just know that our dishes included an Arctic Char that was perfectly cooked, as was a pork chop and pork shoulder. Just fantastic. Also, the coffee is french pressed and very, very good.
There is valet parking right across the street for $2 w/validation. Also, I'm told it used to be a BYOB restaurant w/a $3 cork fee - but now it has a full bar, so it's still BYOB but the cork fee is $15.
It falls short of 5 stars because our service wasn't great. The staff were friendly, water refills and such were timely, but we had nearly 25 minutes between our apps and entrees. In that interval, we didn't see a single person. Also, desert was brought out well before our coffee, so we were basically done with the desert by the time it finally came.
Someone also mentioned the small portion sizes, but this was not the case at all. Unless you and your friend are Joey Chestnut and Kobiyashi in preparation for the Nathan's hot-dog eating contest, you have well-sized plates.
If you just want great food and aren't too much of service snob, this place is 5 stars. Even despite the service glitches, it's a great meal.
