Visited Dressler's this week for the first time with my lady and used a pretty sweet coupon deal which got us 2 appetizers, a salad, two entrees, and a dessert for around sixty bucks. Naturally, we decided to add a bottle of wine to our dinner cause nothing says fancy like a whole bottle of wine to compliment your delicious meal :)
Our server Asa was amazing! He was very knowledgable and took the time to suggest dishes that would pair well together as well as breaking down the ingredients in each dish. Five stars for Asa alone!
First, the appetizers. We started off with the Thai Peanut Calamari and the Goat Cheese and Roasted Garlic. Personally, I loved the Calamari, and to be honest I've never been a big fan until I had Dressler's Thai Peanut version. The Goat Cheese and Roasted Garlic spread however delicious was nothing to run home and tell mom about. My lady and I agreed that the dish failed to meet its mark because of the flimsy pitas.
The Chopped Salad. I'm going to keep this short and sweet for sake of the rest of my review. The champagne vinaigrette is seriously one of the best dressings I have ever had on a salad in my life! Get this salad. You won't be disappointed.
Now onto the entrees. I had the New York Strip and my lady had the Rack of Lamb. The New York Strip was absolutely delightful. Cooked to a perfect medium rare inside with a perfect sear on top..yummy! It was filling and delicious and the garlic butter and asparagus created a wonderful blend of tastes. Oh, and it came with house made fries if that wasn't enough and man those were fantastic. Perfectly cut and crunchy and great flavor..no need to smother them in ketchup.
Finally the dessert. the double chocolate cheese cake was excellent. Two chocolates blended together..sold!
Full and fully satisfied we will definitely be back. With or without the Groupon, Dressler's is a must visit spot!
