I started with a $15 mojito at the bar. And then I elected the prix fixe dinner menu for $55. I regretted the latter decision. Although the starter two oysters were fresh, they were tiny, and I could tell from that that the rest of my meal would be unsatisfyingly small in portion. And indeed it was! My steak was probably only 6-8 oz. and was extremely dry and somewhat chewy and charred. But the sauce was good, though it didn't do enough to cover up the char. Lastly, the sorbet dessert was disappointing because the texture was that of dying-sorbet-making-machine-frozen-yogurt.
But.
The service was wonderful. Our waiter was extremely patient while we perused the menu, and even helped us out when we overheard us discussing how to obtain show tickets. He was sincere and kind, and frequently returned to our table to make sure everything was going well.
And the beef carpaccio was amazing. I was extremely apprehensive about eating raw beef, but I worried to no avail. The beef was thinly sliced, spread atop a bed of cornbread and spring greens, and sprinkled with prosciutto. Just amazing.
The patio view is great, too. You can watch the fountain show while having dinner--how often do you get to do that?
