| - We ate at Sensi on 3/20/11 and had a wonderful experience. From the ambiance, the attentive staff, and the fishbowl kitchen... all of it exceeded expectations. I'm an aspiring chef, well I like to watch Food Network, and being able to watch the chefs in the glassed-in kitchen prepare the meal was like being a kid in a candy store.
We arrived shortly after the beginning of dinner service and the place was pretty empty. By the time we left 90 minutes later, most tables were occupied and there was a large group (conference or something) in what I assume was a banquet room in the back. They were a little noisy but it wasn't too bad.
For appetizers, we had the TLC (tempura lobster crab) roll and the Crispy Fried Shrimp, both of which were amazing. The shrimp were a bit too sweet for my taste, but the wife gobbled them up. The TLC roll was very delicious, and an interesting twist on a sushi roll. It's a spendy treat, however, since after tax/tip you're looking at about 28 bucks a plate, containing 4 bite-sized appetizers. Those good with math will spot the 7-dollars-a-bite price. Totally worth it though!
The bread service was naan with four sauces... yogurt, curry, soy, and sweet chili. Pretty good naan, but part of that might just be that we hadn't had the delightful substance for quite a while. Not bad for free food..
For entree, we had the butter curry chicken and the mushroom ravioli, both of which were great. The ravioli was served with stewed oxtail, and was tasty. Wife liked the curry, too.
Definitely recommend Sensi... We escaped for $125 plus tip: two appetizers, two half-glasses of wine, two (lower-priced) entrees. Go there for yourself!
