Currently visiting home from Alaska, and came in for my grandmothers 87th birthday this evening. Our experience at Cody's was nothing short of amazing!
Starting with our server, Randy. He was funny, overly accommodating (in the best way!), and knowledgeable on the dishes. He noticed our purses set on the floor, and went out of his way to bring over purse clips so they could hang from the table.
Onto food and drink! All the ladies had espresso martinis - delicious! I also ordered the Strawberry Letter cocktail, perfectly sweet and tart, reminded me of a strawberry lemonade. 10/10.
For food we started with the tuna tartare, and it was phenomenal! Having lived many years in Hawaii, I was expecting more of a soy sauce flavor - and was pleasantly surprised by how light and refreshing it was. With pops of melon and cilantro sprouts, I thoroughly enjoyed this dish.
I couldn't decide between a small Caesar or the potato soup to start, and after choosing the salad, Randy brought me a little sample of the soup (another gold star for him!). It was SO SO good - creamy with a bit of crunch from the Pancetta. I would absolutely order next time. The Caesar was just as good. I LOVED the addition of the artichokes, and there was a an ample amount of dressing for the salad - I love not having to ask for extra!
My dad ordered a side of Brussels for the table, these were sweet, salty, and a little tart. Amazing side choice if you're having trouble deciding!!
My mom and I split the beef Wellington, another 10/10 dish. (I know what you're thinking, and no I wasn't paid for this stellar review, I just enjoyed it this much!) The filet inside was perfectly cooked, it had amazing flavor from the mushrooms, and the potatoes were so velvety.
Overall - ambiance, food, and drinks were all standouts. If I HAD to give one complaint, it would be that the Japanese milk bread wasn't the super light (almost brioche) version I'm used to, all that to say it was still phenomenal will the garlic butter.
Bravo! I can't wait to come back!
