| - This is a new place on Mill, and I'm so glad to see it come to the area (otherwise in serious contraction mode). We ate during their grand opening weekend, and were lucky to benefit from several promotions, including 2-for-1 entrées. (Maybe they were buying me off so I'd write a good review. It's working, it's working--http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Hsno7niC_4)
We sat at the bar at around 7 p.m. and received friendly and attentive service there. It was moderately busy, but I expect things will pick up soon as word gets around.
We started off with the gorgonzola and bacon garlic fries, which are huge and heavy...not quite my thing but tasty and probably great for sharing with more people. Then for the entrées. I had spectacular scallops, cooked just to the point where you could slice them like butter. They were served with some flavorful Israeli-style couscous. My husband had the new york strip steak with the most perfectly complementing potatoes I've ever had. The flavor of the potatoes--some divine balsamic reduction, I think--was over the moon.
We didn't have any room for dessert. Next time, I would love to try their salads. And the fact that they feature a different U.S. regional cuisine each month is something to look forward to. I will come back. (To quote the hotels.com commercial again, "oh, they got me.")
Unfortunately for Regions, they are right next to Churchill Cigars (gag me!) If cigar smoke could ruin your meal, avoid the bar and outdoor tables. Next time we'll find an interior table.
