7/11/19 Back Again.
I had the Grilled NY Strip with Roasted Garlic Mashed, sautéed bok choy, House Steak Sauce, Frizzled Onions. The NY Strip was a little beyond medium rare but very good. The garlic mashed were topped with the frizzled onions was excellent! The bok choy was very good.
My wife choose the Eddie Murphy Burger: Prime Patty stuffed with Green Peppers and Onions - served on Texas Toast with American Cheese, Ketchup and Mustard. She substitute the Split Rock Greens (Sautéed Escarole, Cherry Peppers and Pancetta topped with Pecorino & Breadcrumbs) for the Salt & Vinegar Chips
She loved the burger but the thick bread wasn't toasted!
Wine
Kato Sauvignon Blanc and the 13 Celsius Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc both from New Zealand were good.
Service was still excellent! -

Food was absolutely delicious. Hands down a really interesting and well put together menu.
My problem started with our 9pm reservation for a family of 6.
With 3 tables open in the main dining area, our hostess decided to seat us in the back room with a large party of 20 people in what looked like a private dining room. Not sure what the thought process was, but after asking to be reseated in the main dining area; which btw still had the 3 tables unclaimed, our dining experience went from "we can deal with this" to "WTF just happened".
1. Wasn't given a cocktail menu
2. Waitress didn't ask if we wanted drinks
3. Our entrees didn't show up until 1hr after our order was taken!
Food was delicious.
The ambience was delightful (unless they stick you in the back room)
Needs some serious management to help drive this business as it has potential of breaking through in the area. -

This has been on my radar for some time. We went on grad weekend, so they had a fixed,
Limited menu.
My husband ordered the scallops. The table next to us also got them and my husband got about 1/2 the weight in scallops as the other person, so he wasn't happy about that. They both had 3 scallops but a big size difference. One would think that they would go by weight vs placing just 3 on the plate.
I had the lamb chops. They were good but fatty.
I feel like we can't speak to the true experience, since we were limited in selection. -

Got the pork shank with mashed potatoes and sauteed spinach; my boyfriend got the "heavenly thighs" with gouda mac and greens.
They reccomend sticking with the given sides as they specifically pair them for the best outcome. Its delicious this way.
Good gluten free options. Ask if some of the non-gf plates can be made gf (some of the plates are only non-gf due to a sauce or topping).
We got 2 cocktails (Blackberry Marg and Purple Drink). We didnt enjoy either of them very much... Big beer and wine selection so Id probably just stick with that. BUt the food is totally 5 stars. -

I have to say the new menu is very very good! I loved it! I chose the Jackfruit tacos and was not disappointed. At $18 i think anyone who knows how cheap jackfruit is would be a little surprised, but the presentation and taste was on point. I knocked a star off because my 8yr old ordered a house salad with an addition of salmon and they gave him a tail piece over cooked. I think it was because he's a kid, but he's had so much better at so many other places and he was a little disappointed. We will always come back, and be clear about how we like our fish prepared next time. As usual the service was outstanding. Best staff ever.
