This is my 2nd time here and I can't get enough. If you want to see my first review, head over to urbanspoon.
I moved into this area a year ago and one of my top complaints is that there was no place for me to have a great meal. Not anymore!
I'm completely impressed by the food, the service, the ambiance. Tonight, I had salmon and prawns. I was asked how I like my salmon cooked (and that hardly EVER happens) so I knew I was in for a treat. It was absolutely delicious, melted in my mouth. The mixed greens complimented the seafood so well.
My other half ordered the French Laundry and it arrived with an ENORMOUS beef rib and some rooted vegetables. It was so tender and delicious (yes I had some), and he was grabbing forkfuls of my salmon when he thought I wasn't looking.
And what's a fantastic meal without dessert? I had the Caramel apple package which was wrapped in pastry and came with a side of vanilla ice cream. It was all I could do to not put my face in the plate and lick it clean. My husband had the carrot cake which was artfully stacked on his plate and served with a tart lime sorbet. AMAZING.
This restaurant is not a value restaurant but is competitively priced for the food served (they use a lot of local produce and sustainable meats-thumbs up). In addition there are great specials every day of the week AND live music on some nights (the singer there tonight was fantastic. I could've stayed all night).
I'm so glad I'm not confined to King Street any longer-there's a better restaurant right around the corner.
Extra kudos for amazing staff! I'll be back.
