| - My fiancé brought me here last night for my birthday and we had an incredible evening. We were impressed with our waitress, Jessica, as she coordinated a surprise from my brother in Cali...he sent us a bottle of champagne and she surprised us at the end of the meal with the dessert he sent. She was very professional and her service was flawless.
Now to the goodies...appetizers: fried oysters, 1/2 dozen raw oysters, & shrimp cocktail. All three were delicious but the fried oysters stood out. The tartar sauce was so creamy and had a perfect balance...my honeyyy even used it on the shrimp cocktail!
For entrees, we ordered the Japanese A5 Kobe, Beef Wellington, Mac & cheese, & sautéed spinach. The A5 Kobe stood up to it's reputation. Buttery, tender, pretty much the best thing I've ever tasted...but the beef Wellington competed very closely and was worth all the hype. The sides were just as scrumptious! We killed almost every bite.
We added two butter poached lobsters because as an aspiring chef, I wanted to explore this technique from the best. I was blown away by the execution of this technique. You have to taste it to really understand but I can say it was the most indulgent and tender piece of seafood I've ever experienced (coming from the northeast, that's saying a LOT)
My brother sent us the butter toffee dessert and although we aren't big on dessert, we attacked this because it was so good. We were both surprised when we looked down to an empty plate...again!
We will definitely return and had a memorable evening that surpassed my expectations.
