My husband and I had a very early reservation (5:30 p.m.) on a Saturday night. We arrived early at approximately 5 and sat at the bar. The bar atmosphere was fine but not outstanding, the bartenders were very pleasant and my sangria was good (not great but good). I was surprised to see so many people in the bar area so early but one look at their happy hour menu told me why! I plan on coming back for happy hour sometime in the not to distant future.
We were seated for dinner at our leisure. Our waitress Heather was friendly, knowledgeable and funny. The bread and flavored butters that we started with were delicious. We ordered the Prince Edward island mussels and sausage appetizer...it was only ok. The quality was good but the flavor was rather bland. I would not order them again.
On to the steaks! My husband ordered the 8-oz petite fillet with the bbq shrimp companion. He loved it, I liked it too! I ordered the petite fillet with truffle poached lobster, it was also excellent. The quality of the meat was great and they were cooked/seasoned to perfection. The sauces that accompanied the "companions" were very good and well-balanced too. My only complaint was that there was very little hint of truffle to the truffle poached lobster. I love, love, love truffle and wish there would have been more truffle flavor present.
We split a side of sauteed mushrooms and they were lack luster; another item I would not order again. In hind sight we should have ordered to chipotle mac and cheese. That sounds sinfully delicious.
I also thought it was slightly overpriced for the area but not so much that I suffered sticker shock.
All in all, yes I'd go back for the steaks but I would order a different appetizer and/or side. The staff was great and the happy hour menu looks divine.
