| - From a food perspective - We loved this place! I am a huge mussels fan, and my appetizer served as an entree! Amazing portions, high quality food, very tasty and well presented. My son had the grilled chicken, and my husband had the bacon cheeseburger which was incredible.
The biggest standout of the night was our server, Jamie. She was friendly, knowledgable, attentive but not intrusive! I adored her and we even gave her our cards to stay in touch.
Here's the not so great part - This is one of the most awful dining rooms I have ever been in. The tables are set NYC style and so close that our chairs not only touched the chairs of the surrounding tables, but I heard more about the other's tables' relationships and work issues than I would have liked. Additionally, the kitchen entrance is so large you look all the way down the line. Not in a sexy, open air kitchen kind of way, but in a "did the drape not come in" or "is that a mistake" kind of way. And, lastly, the way that the booths are set around the perimeter combined with the height of the tables and the color of the space made me feel like I was squished at the children's table. It was so uncomfortable that we actually left earlier than we would have had the space been more comfortable.
I would love to go back, but I would not sit in that dining room again. Which means that I'm stuck in weather permitting dates when I can sit on the patio!
PS - One final thought - The highchair to table hight was so awkward that my daughter's forehead was literally up against the table edge. Not safe and felt very unnerving!
