I went in for my third visit and decided to try something I'd already had to see if any changes were made. Bess is indeed listening. I had the chicken pillard for the second time. It was good the first time but with to little sauce. This time the sauce was plentiful. The salad was slightly bigger and better dressed than the first. The wait staff has been good each of the three visits and are getting even better. If you've been holding off because of some of the negitive reviews, it's time to give them a try. \r

After only a month they are about to approach 4 stars, they are that close. Now if Sandra would let me cook MY shrimp for her you'd have it offered on the menu.\r

When they first opened I talked to Rob Balon and he agreed with me that the potential was there but they needed some tweeking. They are tweeking big time and it's time to make this a favorite.\r

What I find interesting is that almost all the negative reviews come from people who have reviewed only ONE restuarant, Bess. I think there is a conspiracy going on here. Maybe from friends of the contractor that built her house that she sued. (and won) \r

You don't get large portions, but the food is good. I expect to pay more for quality and get less quantity at a better restuarant. The chef running the show is one of the top chefs in Austin. Give it a try and decide for yourself. I'd like to see more reviews from people who have reviewed MORE then just ONE restuarant.
Pros: Food is pretty darn good.
Cons: None really, they are very close to nailing it.
