Just there on very busy Fri. night. Service a little overburdened, though pleasant. Crowed & a little cramped w/a full house, second hand chic furnishings not always the most comfortable.
Salads *****
Sweetbreads *****
Liver *****
Lamb Shanks *** (see below)
Creme Brulee *** (see below)
Price/Value ***
Spending $170 for 4 entrees, 2 salads, 2 wines, 1 appetizer & 2 desserts gives a diner the right to expect very good food & service. While most things were exceptional, serving delicious braised lamb shanks over seriously undercooked beans isn't acceptable nor is a creme brulee that has set on the shelf for quite a while served under a thick cold brulee.
Don't misread this... I will be back! The staff seemed genuinely upset about the beans & the manager comped our brulees ... but at least one dish should not have left the kitchen. ON slower weekday we've had much better experiences.
