| - We just watched a movie and was ready for "lunch" we made our way home and passed Trivoli village and thought of echo & rig's. We hadn't been in a while so we decided to stop.
We road the elevator instead of doing the stairs, both my husband and I have bad knees, the hosted left us at the elevator and said she would meet us at the top? Last time the hosted road with us! Felt abandoned.
Then we walked through a very busy restaurant, straight to the out door seating area, corner table next to the railing. Next to one of those space heaters. I am warm bloody and chose to sit as far from it as possible. Bad decision, wind coming across that corner was too much for me, had to change seats, a little better but still windy.
After a good 20 minutes, a server finally acknowledged we where in his section and took our drink orders. Then it took another 20 minutes to get them. After what seemed like another 30 minutes, our server came back to take our food order.
Now on Sundays they have a 'brunch' menu with limited items, mostly breakfast things, by this time it's after 230pm, we got there at 120pm. They offer unlimited mimosas for $16 and unlimited bloody Mary's for $22. We are not much for drinking, tea and coffee is our usual and occasionally a cocktail.
We ordered a couple of things for appetizers, we had a small plate, crab cake and the goat cheese sandwich, the drunken goat. Red wine marinated goat cheese Brie, cranberry chutney, herbs de province green apple, petite greens, aioli and walnut bread.
I really liked this combination, loved the walnut bread, it was toasted and three layers. Loved the goat cheese. The whole thing was really good. It's a really big sandwich enough for two to split.
The Maryland crab cake was also very tasty with big chunks of crab with red pepper coulis and lime. This was a 'small' plate and you should expect that, small taste for two, for one person it would be just right.
For main courses my husband got the Summertime Steakhouse salad. It's a natural USDA primeflat iron steak with red onion, mango, avocado, basilromaine & white balsamic-lime vinaigrette. Very good size but only three small strips of steak. It was cooked to order, my husband said he was satisfied, so I guess it was the right amount.
I got the Flat Iron USDA Prime steak, roasted anaheim chilies spinach & preserved lemon chimichurri. It was on a baguette and came with home made potato chips. First bite and I ended up using a knife and fork to eat it, steak was tender, cooked to order, but big pieces and not able to take smaller bites, so I just cut it up.
Our food was good, our service on the other hand was a disappointment. Seemed very slow and we where still eating our apps when our main entree's came. Then getting refills also took some time as well. We've been before when it was not so busy and service was great, so not sure if it's the time of day we came this time or that's the new norm. We're sure to return, just hope service is better.
