| - I came here with my husband recently for my birthday. Chose this place based on Yelp reviews since we live an hour away and weren't familiar with the area. We decided to come at 5pm, in the middle of what I read was their happy hour. It was a Sunday and it certainly wasn't crowded. There were maybe 2 other tables when we were seated.
It's a nice place. A little smaller than I expected from pictures on Yelp, but that's not a bad thing. My husband and I both got drinks. He got a beer and I got "Ginger is a Peach", which was good.
We decided on the bruschetta board. Of the four we tried, our favorites were the tomato and the salmon. Our least favorite was the fig/pistachio one. It just tasted too much like a dessert. It was the only one neither of us volunteered to finish.
My husband ordered the New York steak and I ordered the duck. We both really enjoyed our entrees. I guess word that it was my birthday got out, because out came a dessert...it was like a s'more in fudge form. I expected it to be warm, but the fudgey part was actually cool. Not sure if it was supposed to be or not. I'd seen pictures of other desserts on Yelp even though there was no dessert menu that I saw and I would have likes to try something else, but the s'more thing was pretty good.
Overall, it was a good experience. Our server seemed a little over expectant...always looking at us like we were being too slow even though that wasn't the case, while at the same time stopping to chat with another table like old buddies. But it didn't bother us much. The prices are a bit high, I feel, but the food is good.
