Went here for lunch the other day...zowie! what a great place. Minute I walked in I was impressed as I have a liking for rich dark woods. Great looking place.
had a seat in a big fat booth and server Kelly was over in a flash to greet us and asking what we would like to drink. I thought it was great how she explained in detail that all the juice drinks are made from fresh to order from freshly squeezed juices- WOW Are you kidding me?!?! My wife ordered a fresh squeezed lemonade and it was awesome she said. I told Kelly I wanted a glass of white wine and unlike seemi9ngly most servers these days, she guided me through the labyrinth of wines to exactly what was going to turn me on. That was artful service and it didn't stop there either.
We asked her for some appetizer selections and she explained many in great detail. We selected the Spinach and Artichoke Dip with Crostinis that was really very good - rich and creamy with large pieces of spinach (I hate when they are all diced). I ordered 4 oysters on teh half shell. Kelly brought them to the table and pointed and explained each oyster and wher it was originated: malpeque Oyster, Blue Point Oyster, Hama Hama Toyer, Gold Creek oyster. My favorite was the Blue Point. They were served with cocktail sauce and horseradish traditionally; however, it also came with if I can recall correctly was a Chardonnay infused oil or something that was outstanding to pare with the oysters.
My wife has Chicken Alfredo pasta - yea she did. A bountiful splendor of treasures form the grotto of the sea and she orders chicken. Each there own I guess but I'm not going to expand on her selection - it was chicken.
This menu was so thick with things for me to order I just couldn't decide so I asked my server Kelly to choose for me and she hit it right on the mark with the Albacore Tuna sesame crusted with a Thai Chiki sauce. Outstanding hunk of fish and cooked absolutely perfectly - BRAVO! It was served with a nice Juliane of vegetables. My only issue here was the unsuspected slice of ginger hidden in there that I unsuspected ate and really hate.
Great experience and outstanding service - top notch and remarkably affordable. There was so much to choose from and our server also explained that the menu changes TWICE a day - yes TWICE a day. Only thing I was out of the ordinary was a "10 UNDER $10 SPECIALS" list I guess for the penny pinching pamelas in the crowd - really seems your selling yourselves short there at the price point with this quality, location, product and ambiance.
