The Estate House was wonderful. My guest and I chose to sit on the patio. It was perfect outside. Our waiter was very attentive and didn't mind asking twice to get our cocktails just right. He was awesome.
The BREAD is perfect. Soft and airy in the center and just the right amount of crispy firmness on the outside. I am a bread man. Pass the butter please!!! I had four pieces.
My main dish was the lemon herb chicken. It was nicely cooked and seasoned. It sat over asparagus and a lovely polenta. I was more then happy. I ordered a side of garlic fingerling potatoes. Wow!!! I have never had potatoes that good. My guest ordered the fettuccine. The sauce was very rich. Delectable. He also ordered the heirloom tomatoes with mozzarella appetizer for his side dish. He wouldn't share that one. That mozzarella looked good.
We ordered a cheese plate to fill the time between our souffle preparation. The plate was great, manchego, parmesan, and one more cheese I can't remember the name of. All three were excellent. The plate also came with raspberries, blackberries, grapes, nuts, candied nuts, a strawberry balsamic jam, and bread sticks. What a nice spread. After we nibbled at the cheese plate it was time for the caramel souffle. What a way to end a great meal. So rich yet so light.
I was pleased with Estate House. Next to all that Westcor cookie cutter crap this was a nice surprise on the Waterfront.
The new GM introduced himself to us and said he and his staff have turned it around. I agree. It was such a nice evening.
One more thing. Their upstairs lounge is beautiful. I am going back just to sit in one of those posh booths. Very cool, very chic.
