| - Had a fabulous meal at Le Quartier General. I would sum it up as spectacular food in a casual atmosphere.
Food: the food is the best part about this restaurant. The flavors in the sides and dishes combined perfectly were new and surprisingly delicious. I had the lamb, medium rare, and the garnish was like a slaw which had bright bits of mint and other flavors that tied the dish together perfectly. The meat was good quality and cooked to perfection. My S.O. Had the short rib, which was well balanced with the sides and delicious as well. However, we both preferred the lamb.
Both appetizers (soup and salad) were delicious as well, and the dessert (chocolate one) was sinfully rich and more than enough for 2 people to share.
Service: the service was excellent, attentive, friendly, and they had no problem translating everything into English, as we don't speak French.
Atmosphere: the decor is simple, sleek and homey, with a fireplace and a roaring fire at the wall. It feels almost like being in someone's home, in that you can peek over the counter at what's going on in the kitchen. (And all of the male staff are easy on the eyes ;). Seating is a bit tight and the acoustics make conversation echo, so it's a bit noisy, but not unbearably so
