My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed dinner here on a Monday evening about 8:00. They do a lot of things here right and rarely are all of the senses and sensibilities satisfied like they do here.
First, the place is warm and relaxing with perfect dinner music. The food is beautiful and beautifully presented. A treat for the eyes. The service is attentive, knowledgeable and as friendly as you like. Our table was visited by Irina herself.
We had the Oysters Rockefeller appetizer - an ample portion for two. It had a unique twist on the traditional recipe, served with a type of cream sauce and grilled lemons. I would normally prefer the traditional recipe, but this was a nice twist, especially for someone with an adventurous taste. We had the iceberg salad as well. Consistent with the theme here - the lettuce was presented in a form of a tower with bacon, onions and tomatoes arranged on the side.
We were somewhat disappointed that there was no cracked pepper offered, nor were there salt or pepper on the table. The salad was a little light on dressing and along with the lack of pepper, a little short on flavor. We also noted that there is no bread served and we kind of missed that.
Our main entree was the NY Strip, wet aged, which our server advised was marinated in a house spice before aging. The steak was cooked to perfection, beautifully presented, tender and flavorful. My only regret here was that we split the dinner, not that the portion wasn't large enough, gluttony was kicking in. We also ordered the grilled asparagus as a side, and it was very good.
The cheesecake we ordered was also very good, with a very berry flavor, complemented with drizzled berry and chocolate as well as a whole strawberry and a portion of blueberries.
The wine selection is ample and the whole menu is fairly priced, I believe this is a very good value. In summary, the food flavors weren't the best, but nonetheless very good and everything else, ambiance, service and especially the food presentation was over the top good. I would definitely return here.
