After our experience at Trib (or Tribune) for dinner, we were so pleased with the GREAT service for our dessert here.
Hostess quickly approached and asked if we wanted the lounge or restaurant. Told her we were just there for dessert and she said they would be happy be seat us wherever we wanted. The lounge was pretty and loud as they have a live band on Friday nights. So we sat in the restaurant. Was really nice to experience the live music, but still be able to hold a conversation.
Waitress quickly came and indicatated she would bring us dessert menus right away and she knew we were just there for dessert. She was patient, gracious and VERY helpful. I really don't like waiters that say 'everything is good' and she helped guide us to desserts we would really like. She didn't say anything was bad, but asked a few questions and then made some recommendations. I had planned to order the chocolate soufle, but she disuaded me. And after she described it to me I realized I really wanted the Baked Alaska (which by the way you should share as it is REALLY good but very very rich). My hubbie thought his creme brulee was some of the best he had had in years (and he is a tough critic).
Even the coffee passed muster. My bro in law owns a coffee roastery and his very very fussy. And while they felt the beans were just okay, it was fresh brewed and hot. Plus, the waitress was quickly able to answer their question on who supplied their coffee.
Wish we had gone here for dinner, as well as dessert. Next time we'll forgo the people watching and have a GREAT dinner.
