| - Went here on a Wednesday night at 6:30PM. Restaurant is clean, modern, and has a great wrap around bar in the center of the restaurant. There wasn't much of a crowd at 6:30PM, but it started to fill up a little bit after 7PM. It's a small/intimate restaurant (with some booths on one side, regular tables on another, and about 15 seats at the bar). There were people seated to the tables next to us, and we could hear their conversations unfortunately (that's the only downside to this restaurant).
Food was AMAZING!!
we ordered:
- scallops ceviche: anything with ceviche means the meat is raw, and the juices from the lemon "cook" it. This was the best ceviche I've had. It was slightly sweet, had a little sweet balsamic vinegrete in there, with sweet pickled onions, mango slices, advocado, and a thai chili for each of the four scallops. It was beautifully presented too, and really easy to fit on your spoon, and to eat it whole (which is recommended because the flavors of the mango and chili really go well together with the scallop).
- brussel sprouts: sweet balsamic-like brussel sprouts cut in half length wise, with bacon or some kind of pork. it wasn't bitter, like brussel sprouts can be, and the outside was nicely crispy with the balsamic (i think) caramelization.
- lamb: we ordered it medium rare, and even though it looked rare, it was not. IT WAS SOO DELICIOUS. also pricey at $18 (and remember this is a tapas restaurant so the order of lamb didn't come with two sides), but totally worth it. Lamb can be gamey, but this wasn't.
- bread: also delicious. it was so cute! it tasted a little like those Hawaiian rolls you get for Thanksgiving when you're too lazy to bake actual rolls, but way better. It also came with salted butter, which was simple and surprisingly amazing. I need to start doing that with my own buttered toast.
- crab cake: also very good. came with a ton of actual crab meat that looked like crab meat. Most crab cakes are mostly bread crumbs, and mashed crab meat (or it looks like mashed crab meat because you can't actually see the crab meat). This was not like that. My description doesn't make it sound appetizing, but it was delicious and perfectly crispy on the outside.
No room for dessert, which was sad. They also have a board of specials, which I definitely want to try for my next visit.
Service: guy was super nice & helpful. We explained it was our first time, and the server gave us a list of recommendations for us to choose from.
It's definitely pricey, total for two people came out to $59 (pre tax & pre tip), but it's so worth itttttt!!
