| - Pretty F'n amazing! Yes, it's a couple hundred bucks for 2 people, but everything was great. We went on a Sunday night and had plenty of time to have a couple drinks at the bar. Happy hour $5 wells and cosmos. Good pours and a friendly staff. The decor is pretty cool, with some neat paintings and film roll ceiling. Nice, comfy booths.
The bread basket was awesome, but could have used a little more butter. I was a little disappointed there was no cherry bacon bread that lots if other reviewers raved about, but it was still good.
We had the octopus appetizer to share, and it was done really well. A couple thicker pieces were not as tender, but very flavorful. The citrus sauce on top was quite good, and the fava beans were excellent.
My wife had the Muscovy Duck, which she liked. It came with heirloom carrots and we got a couple sides. Brussels sprouts and asparagus. The asparagus was fresh but otherwise unremarkable. The sprouts were covered with bacon, so there's that!
I had the bone-in ribeye with bleu cheese. I ordered it medium, as many reviewers indicated theirs were more rare than ordered. What I got was a medium-rare steak that was nearly perfect. My only issue was the portions were huge, even the duck, and we couldn't finish everything. It pained me to let that beautiful meal go unfinished. I don't suppose that's something to complain about, though.
So, with drinks, an appetizer, two sides, and two entrees, we paid around $195 with tip. We would definitely return.
