| - My husband and I went here before "O" from Cirque du Soleil and had the pre-theatre menu with some supplements. We had:
Ahi tuna tartare - wicked tasty! Best part of the meal!
Baked potato soup and grilled cheese - also wicked tasty! My husband's favorite course as well
Lobster pot pie - My husband liked it a lot, but it was too much food. He got full really fast and it just got to the point where he was just eating lobster to eat the rest of the lobster on his plate!
Phyllo-crusted sole - Excellent! I liked all the parts separately and for the most part they went together, but sometimes I would screw it up and it wouldn't taste as good as it should!
Root beer float - Tasty, but way too big! The choc chip cookies were quite good!
Brownie - Very tasty! Small portion, but perfect for doing a tasting-type menu.
Overall we really liked MM, but we were very full by the end, so if the portions were even a bit smaller we would have probably been happier. Overall, the appetizers overshined the entrees for us, but maybe we just haven't found our signature entrees there yet :)
Additionally, the service was amazing and it was great having the waiters explain what you are eating before you dig in. The presentation was immaculate. Oh, and this was our first experience with wine pairings and I must say.... we've been missing out! These were AMAZING!
Major kudos to Michael Mina, a great romantic date spot before the theatre :)
