Spoon, one of the better restaurants in the Burgh. The decor is nice and tables are far enough apart to make it intimate.
Service was outstanding from our waiter, to the other servers that assisted, to John the Sommelier. John spent a little time with us with several recommendations that would go with our mix of dinner orders. He actually highly recommended a bottle that was one of the least expensive on the wine list. He got it right, too, very nice cabaret franc.
The bread basket was very good, probably could have eaten bread all night.
Interesting menu with many fresh items. We shared a grilled avocado that came with a charred tomato vinaigrette, oven roasted tomato and some creamy burrito. We also had the bleu cheese souffle that had french peaches, nectarines, plums and a nice arugula with a sweet and sharp vinaigrette. I had a pork and shrimp dinner that was very good, the pork was cooked perfectly and the shrimp was good but maybe a tad over cooked but still tasty and good. All of the meals had some interesting ingredients that introduced some very tasty meals. The preparation and presentation was top notch.
