I liked it.
This is a new place in a physically difficult structure---too much space. You could have 100 people in it and it will look empty. That is the one turn-off to this location, and I think that is what has really hurt it's predecessors (South Beach, Renegade).
We visited with friends last night and the food and service hit a huge home run!!
We did the drinks and appetizer route. Yes, drinks are a bit too expensive. But, the food is off the charts. Lamb chops were meaty and perfectly cooked on a home made cole slaw that we all ate and then our friend wanted to lick the plate.
The spinach artichoke dip with toasted french roll bread was full of real artichoke and real spinach. The baked clams were to die for. The beef sliders did not last long--we devoured them whole. Finally, the charcouterie plate had some extraordinary cheeses and meats (we couldn't finish it) and then we called off the charge into grazing because we were pleasantly stuffed.
I think the food prices and quality are exceptional. The service (Luke) was top-notch. The location is excellent (not very far from my home).
I would not think of this as a steakhouse, I would say more of a high-end foodie joint. It seems that if they can find some way to overcome that sort of "empty" feeling due to such a large amount of floor space, they will knock it out of the park.
I definitely recommend giving this new place a try. I know we will be there again very soon.
