| - Ehnnnnnn pros and cons. Which first?
Okay, pros. Really cute location, small in an intimate way, and has the amazing offering of live music to serenade you as you eat/converse with your dining companion.
Cons? The food. The prices. And especially the food considering the prices. My friend and I had bacon wrapped scallops, chicken skewers, the alfredo pasta, and the artichoke dip. Nothing was particularly outstanding - the skewers were particularly unimpressive, and brought us to philosophize about the significance of the (broken-by-hand-to-fit-on-plate) skewer sticks, when clearly the chicken was cooked (until dry) without. The alfredo pasta was aight, and the artichoke dip was okay.
Drinks are also priced for Yorkville: $16 cocktails, $10 glasses of wine, and $8-9 bottles. This would be more acceptable if they at least chose some gourmet stuff, but it's all completely standard.
BUUUT let's not forget the live music, shall we? Overall, realistically, I won't ever be back for dinner - but I might very well come back on a for some late evening dip and/or an overpriced drink which I will write off as cover for the musical accompaniment on Fridays and Saturdays.
