| - We had a very good dining experience here.
The beautiful interior, larger than I expected, features large teak tables well-spaced which is a plus for me as I dislike being elbow to elbow with fellow diners.
I actually had 2 different entrees because the first featured a tough, chewy bison steak. The service, excellent throughout, handled this well, insisting on making me happy. First they tried another cut of the bison, done a little more (odd, I thought, but who's to argue with a chef, and it was still only medium rare). When that turned out to be equally chewy they brought me lamb, which turned out to be very good. The bison bits that were edible were fine too, btw, and I'm not sure who's at fault when it comes to a tough steak. My partner in dine had a sea bream she loved, though I thought it wasn't so great. A la carte extras are required unless all you want is that one item, though my date and I shared just one order each of potatoes and rapini as the sizes were large. I guess I would call the food only adequate, considering the price which was about $35 per meal.
As befits a wine bar, we found excellent by-the-glass selections to go with our respective meals.
To sum up: a great space, top-notch service, very good food and wine, though entrees were a little over-priced perhaps.
