| - I went with a group of friends, and we were all impressed with the decor. The hotel is beautiful, and it's right by the baseball stadium, which is really cool. The drinks menu was awesome, and the drink I had was great.
I liked the butcher paper on the tables, and the waiter was really nice. He was great about answering my questions, and even helped me decide between two dishes that sounded good.
I ultimately went with the lobster gnocchi, and the full serving was actually a huge plate of food. The gnocchi was nice (not the lightest gnocchi I have ever had, but pretty good), and the lobster was cooked well. The sauce was quite rich and decadent, and after a few bites, it was feeling like it needed some acid or lightness. I think a small side salad with a tangy vinaigrette would have been nice to add to the dish.
I did take a go-box home, so I ended up getting 1.5 meals out of this, actually.
One of the other diners had the pork and beans, and it looked and smelled amazing. I would go for that the next time I go.
A tip about parking: if you ask the waiter, they will validate your valet parking if you eat at the restaurant. I really appreciated that, because it's a difficult area to park in, especially if there is a game going on.
