| - I'm between 3 and 4 stars on this one. Considering the price point is moderate, I'll go with the 3 stars. So, first impression was really good. The place was packed on a Wednesday night at 7:30. We had a party of nine, so while we waited for our table, we hung at the bar and everyone was ordering it up. I spent zero dollars for this dinner so I can't even comment on drink prices as I only had one glass of wine anyway. After about a 20 minute wait, we were seated in the back, behind the fireplace. It was pretty intimate back here, we were a little too close to the kitchen, but still not complaining.
For apps we ordered the lobster ravioli (really tasty and plentiful, yet too salty at the same time). The pumpkin pierogie was a special, and it was good, but the order seemed a little stingy. The chicken wings were ordered extra crispy, but weren't served that way. Also note, the were very smokey. I don't like smoky, and even if I did, they took it too far. The sauces that came on the side didn't compliment that well, this was my least favorite app. We also did the calamari, these were ok, I'd order again, but nothing too out of the ordinary. Finally, (I know, we're greedy) the fondue, I really did enjoy this with the pita versus the chips.
For my entree I did the filet mignon, asked for it medium, but it was served medium rare. I don't like medium rare. It was so charred on the outside, it tasted a little burnt. It had some butter on top, the insides of the meat had no flavor. My entree wasn't hot (I like my food smoking, it was as if they let it sit). So I do not recommend the filet, I have had way better at this price point else where, like the chop for example.
The sweet potato fries we're good, as expected, especially with some old fashioned ketchup. The asparagus was bland, needed some salt, garlic, butter, one or all would have been great. Go with the roasted veggies instead. The brussel sprouts we're yummy. So my filet with a potato and veggie was $26, I believe. Another reminder to leave the steak to the steak houses (in most cases). I should have went with my gut and ordered a sandwich or burger. I think if I would been here before and been in the know, I could have been a happy camper for around $25??? Instead, I was treated to a $40 mediocre dinner, and I didn't like my entree. If it wasn't for the apps, they would really have been dinged. Our service was cool, and we were with a tough croud!
