I've always liked O&A so wanted to try the new updated restaurant. It has a nice clean new look but it's extremely loud - I had to yell to speak with my friend- I couldn't hear the waitress, nor could she hear me during a few instances. We had the asparagus, which is good- but when you get only 3 scrawny spears and pay $9ish - it seems a little steep. My friend has the strip-loin earlier in the week so we tried it again, the taste was a little off and it was quite tough. I did enjoy the leeks. All the portions are so small that it's not really for sharing and you would need a lot of plates to fill yourselves if this was actually your dinner. We are happy to pay the prices but please Ox make us feel like we got something out of it.
