Happy birthday to me!
My family took me here tonight for my birthday and it was a delight. The atmosphere was luxurious and lovely, especially when our server graciously moved us away from the kitchen and to a quieter table. The food was rich but wonderful. Highlights:
- Fried calamari was crunchy and flavorful and included a variety of surprise vegetables as well. Perfect for a family game of "guess what it is before you bite into it" (bok choy turned out to be artichoke, carrot was sweet potato)
- My scallops were divine, perfectly cooked with a rich butter sauce and unusual, tasty potato hash.
- My mom was tickled by the size of her flounder dish ("I have TWO fillets!") and the butternut squash orzo that accompanied it just melted in your mouth.
- My eighteen year old brother announced he would try fish and chips for the first time, and is now worried that the dense Yuengling batter and tasty, flaky fish has ruined him for "regular" f&c.
- Seared tuna and stuffed shrimp, also lovely.
Tim was the PERFECT server from start to finish. He made my birthday really special.
Thanks Tim and McCormick & Schmick's!
