| - I ate at MSB awhile back and had every intention of writing a review but, like so many things, it fell to the wayside of my exceedingly busy schedule. As I was perusing reviews and stumbled across the rating for MSB, I was shocked. Upon further reading, I was even more surprised. With that, I was inspired to pen my own review.
I dined with a party of two at MSB on a week night around 8pm. It was busy but not overwhelmingly so. We were seated and had just ordered drinks when management came out to ask a favor of us; they had some live acoustic entertainment coming in that usually uses the area we were seated in as their stage. Management apologized that the hostess had made a mistake in seating us there and made sure our first round of drinks were gratis. As if that weren't enough to make up for the extremely minor inconvenience we were also gifted a few David Bacco chocolates for dessert which were--of course--absurdly delicious.
My lady-friend and I split a crab cake to start off the meal which was WONDERFUL. She called it the best crab-cake she's ever had but she has both a flair for the dramatic and less-than-discerning tastes; she was, afterall, there on a date with me.
The lovely lady ordered the season quiche for an entree which was excellent but a bit small in portion. The slice itself was a bit undersized but could've been made up for with a more substantial side then the greens that accompanied it as my companion was left hungry. To be fair again though, she could probably stand to be a bit underfed if you know what I mean.
I, myself, had a pork chop which I'm not sure is still on the menu. The porkchop was exquisite; full of flavor, moist and tender. I could not have been happier with my choice. I believe it was accompanied by esparagus but I'm not entirely positive on this.
Despite my generally fuzzy memory, I'm sure of this: the food was absolutely excellent and the service was fine. Though not the best service I've ever had they didn't do anything to detract from the five stars the food itself earns MSB. It makes me truly wonder what other reviewers have experienced or 'heard about' to be so reviled by this place. Perhaps I do not want those answers though and would prefer to continue in my ignorant bliss. Regardless, I vividly remember being very happy with this trip to Monroe Street even without getting the goodnight kiss from my date.
......
What a bitch.
