Review content:
My wife and I visited The Grove for the first time on Saturday, 3/1/2008. We had heard that it could get pretty busy so we got there around 5:30PM and were able to sit at a great table outside on the deck. (FYI - By 6:00PM the deck was full).\r

Our server, Melanie, was terrific. She was knowledgeable, friendly, and very attentive. My wife just casually mentioned that we were going to be sharing our entrees. When they arrived, they were already split on separate plates without asking. Our water glasses were never empty. What more to ask for? \r
\r
My wife does not drink wine and I do not consider myself a connoisseur of wine in any manner so the whole idea of ?Flight of Wine? in an accessible location in Westlake was intriguing for me. I tried the Tuscan flight and appreciated the information card that came with the glasses. \r
\r
The best part, however, was the food. We started out with the crab cake appetizer which was very good. Lot?s of crab ? less cake and very full flavored. It only got better. \r
\r
We then split the Steak Salad and the Jrk Chicken Pasta. Both were superb. The combination of textures of the steak, greens, pecans, tomatoes, and organic cheese topped with a buttermilk dressing was perfect. The quality and freshness of the ingredients was evident. It reminded me of the summer meals I had growing up that my Mom made using fresh fruit and veggies from our backyard garden that I picked for her. The Jrk Chicken Pasta was extremely flavorful and rich. It had a bit of kick to it which was quite pleasurable. \r
\r
We topped it off with the Chocolate Bread Pudding. Although not wine connoisseurs, we know our chocolate! This one of the best desserts I?ve had. The bread pudding was covered in whipped cream with some raspberries. It had terrific flavor yet was very light ? not so heavy and ultra-rich as many chocolate desserts can be.\r
\r
Overall, it was an extremely enjoyable way to start our evening. We?ll certainly be back.
Pros: Superb food, great service, nice ambience, fun wine flights.
Cons: Minor - We were not asked preference of inside vs. outside seating. We had to ask.
