Ok, here's the deal. This place is very tricksie, one would think that new american food with a northern Italian flare with a charming intimate setting would be a winner, wrong. I had the petite fillet with brussels sprouts & potatoes with a redwine demiglace. All was well until the pitiful $30 steak came out. This was certainly the worst quality cut I've ever had at a restaurant. I was expecting a medallion and got the scrap from the whole fillet. On top of this there were no sides, just 2 undercooked brussels sprouts (no exaggeration) cut into quarters and a few pinkie nail size pieces of potato, literally enough for about two decent sized bites. What kind of chef would even think about sending out a horrid cut of fillet??? Within about 3 minutes I had already eaten the entire chewy steak and the pitiful little undercooked morsels, within 5 minutes I already had a plan hashed to drive through jack in the box on the way home. My wife had the chicken with green beans and potato hash. The chicken was juicy and good but there was only enough for a light snack. The green beans and potatoes were undercooked. The potatoes were most likely breakfast potatoes left over from brunch and were partially raw... After eating all my slop I ate the undercooked green beans and potatoes from my wifes plate and still left hungry. If you're thinking about eating there do yourself a favor, take $100 flush $80 down the toilet and use the leftover $20 to buy a pizza... It would be unfair not to add the fact that the service is great as well as the setting.
