| - I really enjoyed my meal here. I've been quite disappointed in a few of the new, overpriced, super trendy places that I've tried downtown, but I would definitely go here again. I really enjoyed the set-up of the bar and dining rooms.
Apps are served tapas style, so we stayed away from that menu as there were only two of us and we were both very hungry. The whole "tapas" thing in general seems like a hidden way to charge more for less if it is served in a pretty way, but maybe that's just me. That being said, just know what you are ordering so you're not disappointed. Apps menu would likely be good for a large group that likes to share.
We started with sharing a Spicy Crab salad and a caterpillar roll, both of which I enjoyed and were great to share. For our entrees, I got the Sea bass Pumpkin Noodle and my friend had the Scallop Pad Thai. I really enjoyed both of those too! I didn't read the menu close enough to realize that the noodles served with my dish were squash noodles, rather than regular noodles in a pumpkin sauce, but I was still happy with my decision. Sea bass is my absolute favorite fish and it was cooked very well, perfectly juicy and buttery. The scallops were also well-cooked and although I've never had them served with a peanut-style sauce, it was a great combination.
We decided to be ultimately indulgent and also go for dessert. We split the Fortune Cookie and we didn't leave a single crumb behind. A giant fortune cookie dipped in chocolate, topped with toasted coconut and filled with chocolate mousse. You really can't go wrong with that.
