| - This review is a bit late, but better late than never - right?
We went for the Prix Fixed menu on Valentines Day, I know that sometimes those menus on holidays can have weaknesses.
Like many other people, we couldn't figure out WHERE Mood was, not realizing it was right next to/inside the bar area.
Our waiter was a bit frazzled and it was packed in there, but the menu looked delicious with 5 course and well, almost everything containing alcohol.
My boyfriend literally waited 20 minutes for a fork to eat his salad (pears in a fig reduction with maytag bleu cheese) which was so light and tasty once we finally got to eat it. The next course was a lobster bisque with TONS of lobster in it topped with a cognac foam, which could have been warmer. The thrird course was small frozen Pignot Noir, which was most likely sweetened on top of a frozen mandarin orange slice and mint.
The main course was a 6 oz Filet and with some huge ravioli type thing and some overly salty sauteed mushrooms. My boyfriend's filet was over cooked and dry, and 3/4 of mine was perfect and the other end was almost raw. My boyfriend loved his huge ravioli and I thought mine was gross. Dessert was a white chocolate covered strawberry and a very tasty petite four and a glass of champagne.
Every course had some sort of alcohol infused in it, except the pears and with my glass of included champagne and my glass of wine I was nearly drunk by the time the check came.
I would go eat there again on a non holiday, because the items that were good, were SO good. They were just overbooked and frazzled.
One couple came and never had a waiter check on them and THEY LEFT - which I have never seen before, especially on Valentines Day.
It's worth going to for the experience.
