Came here for a Winterlicious dinner with friends on January 29th. The restaurant was not what I expected (I thought it was one of those high end fancier restaurants, but boy was I wrong) -- I mean this in a good way! It was very cozy/homey inside when I was the first to arrive in the party. The owner (or manager?) was pretty quick to acknowledge me and I was seated quickly. For a Friday night, it was packed -- not sure if they're super busy all the time or if it was because of Winterlicious, but it seemed like most tables were ordering from their Winterlicious menu...
The appetizer and dessert that I got were great (Thai Salmon and Cod Ceviche, and Tiramisu). I thought the AVIV Dry Rub Baby Back Pork Ribs main was a bit too dry but the accompanying slaw and sweet potato fries were good. It took about 25 minutes between the appetizer and main courses to be served -- the manager had stopped by our table to apologize for the wait, which was kind of him to do so.
One interesting thing about the restaurant is how they just blast Top 40 hits... the bathroom sounded very much like a club...
