If I could eat here every day, I would. My goodness is this food stellar!
The service right through the door was great. Super friendly smiling staff were attentive all night. There was a live guitar player/singer for most of our meal which was nice. The ambiance and decor were great as well.
We went around 8pm on a Saturday night and it wasn't very busy. If you have a larger group, I'd definitely make a reservation. There is a decent amount of seating which is refreshing for a downtown restaurant.
I went there with a girlfriend and we sat at the chef's bar. Our waitress let us know that they have sort of a sharing concept there which is great for me because I want to try as many dishes as I can.
We started with the pickled spring tomatoes. It came on top of whipped ricotta and served with fresh grilled bread. The bread melts in your mouth, the ricotta is perfectly creamy and the tomatoes burst in your mouth with flavor. It was outstanding!
For entrees, my friend ordered the Squid Ink Pasta which was lovely and they didn't shy on the crab meat at all.
I ordered Creekstone Farms Sirloin that was served on top of smoked chili whipped potatoes. Beautifully cooked and the flavor was spot on.
Finally, after seeing all the pictures on yelp of the desserts, we had to try one. We got the peach cobbler and man, was it good! It was served with a bourbon butterscotch sauce and ricotta & ginger ice cream. Amazing!!! We were able to watch the chefs make a batch right in front of us which is a plus.
They have a great brunch menu and I have to come back and try lunch and at least four other things on the dinner menu.
You have to try this place! Carson kitchen took the cake last year for downtown eating, and Glutton is taking it this year.
