| - Where to begin...I think I will start with the positive. The brie brulee topped with the caramelized apple slices was a hit, the mixed green salad with goat cheese was awesome and the pear tart desert was outstanding. The lamb shank was cooked perfectly, but the lamb flavor was missing. The whole dish ( lamb shank, veggies, Israeli couscous, figs and apricots) ALL had the exact same flavor; only the textures were different. Now the flavor was great, but not something I would write home about. Now to the negative stuff...The place was too crowded and noisy for my liking. The tables were so close that I felt I could join in the conversation next to me without effort. Couple that with REALLY REALLY slow service and, well you get the idea. You will need to bring your own wine and they will open it for you for only $10.00. French food without wine? really?? And then you gaff me for 10 bucks?!? Needless to say I had the minted tea. It was okay but no real mint flavor to speak of. The final bill for one appetizer, one salad, one entree and one desert was $70.00. (Not counting the tip) My date and I split everything and we were comfortably well fed. So, the portion size was decent. To sum up, it would be a nice place for a date, but I won't be back and I know a place not to far from there that I would MUCH rather go to given the choice.
