The food is overpriced and bland. It reminds me of dorm food--great variety that kills you to eat. Sure they have some tasty appetizers and comfort foods, but I would never go to all that trouble to come here and eat just that.\r

What this place does do right is cheesecake and margaritas (hmm, they could use a margarita-flavored cheesecake...). The plain cheesecake with Oreo-crumble crust has some BAM! to it but is low-key enough that I can still taste the cheese in the cake. I had the Godiva one before--too much going on there, hard to really savor the flavor of the cheesecake. Also--this makes a huge difference--eat the cheesecake at room temperature. They served my table our cheesecake at room temperature at the Brentwood location and the cheesecake was 10x better.\r

This place can also be romantic at night, what with the dim lighting and the view of the lagoon and all. \r
Pros: cheesecake and margaritas (keep it simple, stupid), attentive servers
Cons: overpriced bland food, parking (I dont believe in valet--waste of time and money)
