| - Pretty swank appetizer/lounge that seems like it was transplanted from one of the bigger urban centers, such as Miami or Chicago. My friends and I went on a Wednesday at 7 PM and it was empty besides us. Which I didn't mind at all because we were able to have our meeting and didn't care about the lack of scene we saw. I did enjoy the poivre, which I had trouble pronouncing and was embarassed. Essentially, this drink is just a pear flavored glass of champagne. They put this fizzy cube at the bottom and it tasted nice!
I was also a fan of the shrimp and carrots tempura fried in a light, distinct batter, but wish it came with other vegetables besides asparagus. Yay for it not being greasy.
And, I was on heavenly planet hummous when that came with the mildly salted, fluffy pita bread and olive tappenade (not too bitter). The price I paid for these dishes to share? 15 bucks, which included tax and tip. A little more than I would like to spend, but we also had a nice server.
Even the bruschetta my pals ordered looked good. In fact, I was tempted to try some (but didn't), since I normally am not a big fan of the dish at all. But trust me: I did have hope for Opus that it makes an awesome dish to win over even non-fans like me.
