AZ restaurant week inspired me to try a new place. We made a reservation, were sat immediately, but man, our server was awkward. I felt like he kept repeating everything i said in this voice that was questioning my every choice. I was open to a suggestion if he had one...but he didnt offer much. Everyone else we made contact with was great - bartender helped my husband with a gin selection, other servers stopped by and asked how everything was...everyone else seemed extremely friendly. But our guy, uh...not so much.
It appeared the AZ Restaurant week menu was our only option for dinner. I was disappointed in all our selections. The charcuterie plate with sliced prosciutto and stuffed cherry peppers was, in a word, lame. My husband had the pork belly and it had good flavor, but the presentation was really lacking. He had the lamb burger that came with some Mcdonalds style fries and I had the fried eggplant. Neither dish had much flavor. Salt and pepper on the table would have been a nice option - maybe thats not hip and cool anymore? Dessert attempted to save the meal - the chocolate bouchon was pretty amazing. The sorbet was good as well.
Overall, I was disappointed. It seemed like it should be a nice place and maybe we just had a bad roll of the dice that night...but I never got to see what they have on the regular menu. I might try it again to try a cheese plate but I dont think its going into my restaurant rotation.
