| - Finally had the chance to eat here with Duchess Shirley B. I'd been looking forward to dining here because I've only heard good things from other Yelpers. We arrived on a Tuesday night at 6:45pm and the place wasn't busy at all; I think there were two other parties there when we walked in. Our party of five was greeted warmly by the staff and Chef Ash came over to hug the duchess as well as welcome the rest of us.
We had:
hummus with pita chips x2
baked lobster bisque x 2
tilapia
chicken marsala
crepe de crevettes (sauteed shrimp and mushrooms in lemon butter cream sauce wrapped in crepes) x 2
I thought the crepe de crevettes dish was delicious, especially since I don't eat butter cream sauce very often. I also had the baked lobster bisque, which I was looking forward to the most. However, I thought it was quite salty, so I was a bit disappointed, but the pastry on top was very good. The hummus was also great and our server kept replenishing us with fresh pita chips, which weren't really chips, but sliced pita bread--not crunchy.
At the end of the meal, Chef Ash himself brought us complimentary dessert: baklava, my favorite! 5 stars right there. Thankfully, everyone was so full that I got 1.5 pieces; I was also full, but you can't let good baklava go to waste. I look forward to more visits as there are many good-looking menu items still to try. Five stars for me is always great food and great service and Bon Chef fit the bill. It's even better when that experience is shared with great friends; we'll be back.
