| - I am a fan, despite the high maintenance hostess. The food is great, and the ambiance is cozy (although I do question some of their musical choices). Really, just come for the food. It's not going to be someplace you want to take someone you don't know at all, but if you've gotten a feel for them, and they seem more relaxed, this is a perfect place.
The menu changes almost daily (this is the epitome of farm to table - they base their menu around what they can get from the market THAT DAY). I don't know if they do the whole sustainable organic thing, but you can be sure they got the local part down. I had the shrimp bisque, which was quite tasty. But the best part by far was the duck breast. I really enjoyed that! And a couple of amuses thrown in... quite nice. Dessert was good too, but not as good as the main.
It's BYOB, so be prepared. Also, if you want to make a reservation, they really make you jump through hoops - you can't just leave a mesg, and have them call you back to confirm - they make YOU call back after receiving THEIR mesg to confirm. Seriously - it's kind of annoying. And they give you shit if you miss your reservation - I've NEVER had that experience at another restaurant before, and it's a testament to how good their food is that I'm willing to put up with that crap and go back.
