| - I had dinner with a friend here during week of 11-14-16. I ordered the Chicken Bryan (wood fire grilled chicken breast with goat cheese and sun dried tomato on top with a buttery sauce) and a side of pasta w/red sauce. Entrée served with a side salad at a total cost of $18.99. Salad was not nearly as fresh as it could have been (some rusty remnants) and was a bit boring, consisting, to my eye, entirely of iceberg lettuce and two, lonely, tiny, pitted Kalamata olives. Parmesan dressing was pretty good and not overly garlicky or salty. Entrée was quite good although the chicken was not cut into two portions; rather, it appeared to be two breasts still attached in the center. I feel the chicken would have been more appetizing if it would have been cut into two separate portions and better trimmed. Flavor was very good, though. Portions were ample. Hot bread (nothing very interesting) and olive oil and herbs were served with the meal. Butter was provided to me at my request. Overall, the meal was quite good but not nearly as tasty as this entrée was the last time I ordered it (when the chicken was properly trimmed and the salad much fresher), which was approximately 1-2 years ago. We arrived early, around 4:45pm and by the time we left, around 6:00-6:15pm, the place was crowded with people queued up waiting for tables and the noise level was quite high. Service was very good. The restroom and the restaurant appeared to be very clean and well maintained.
