| - Service was excellent, atmosphere was nice.
This is a fancy froo froo shee shee type place, which is just fine every once in a while. Perhaps I'm not the ideal clientele, I don't mind paying for great food but I'd like to be getting a moderate sized portion. I just don't want to leave feeling hungry, which is what happened.
Having said that though, the actual dishes were great presentation, very flavorful, just not at all plentiful. The goat cheese salad had some tasty elements; in the center a perfectly fried ball of goat cheese surrounded by various greens and dressing. The only negative thing I'll say is that with the bitterness of the radishes it would have balanced the dish better with a sweetness element, which they did some of with the candied nuts. The bitterness was a bit overpowering.
I also had the spider roll which was delicious softshell crab sushi but again just about 4 pieces for $15. Lastly I added the latin cream corn, wonderful blend of corn, onions, scallions, cream.
All told a bit of a pricey meal (which is perfectly fine), fine cuisine overall, but just not enough quantity on the plate. I think there's a fine balance between too much and too little, I understand that fine dining isn't a Golden Corral but there's a better balance to be had here.
