I finally got the change to come here last week with a couple of co-workers for lunch. I've booked reservations at this restaurant for years but it's always been for someone other than myself.
It wasn't at all what I expected it to be. I found the decor to be a little 'dated' although I suspect they're trying to stick with the whole 'tavern' feel and for some reason, I was under the impression that the type of restaurant where you paid a lot and received not much more than an amuse bouche for as an entree. Not the case at all!
I ordered the turkey club with sweet potato fries. Roast turkey with peameal bacon, tomato,
lettuce, Dijon mustard, lemon aïoli and apple & hazelnut slaw. Wow. Fantastic! The peameal bacon was such a nice addition and between that, the lemon aïoli and the slaw, it truly made this the best club I think I've ever had.
The service was great, the food was great and I now understand why so many people go here. I will definitely come back!
