"We had reservations on Saturday night at 7:15. We arrived on time and had to wait about 10 minutes for a table. There are two floors, and we were seated upstairs along the wall with the pew seating. My wife said it was very uncomfortable, while my cushioned chair was very comfortable. Our server was very friendly and explained the menu well, but when she came to take our order, she did what I hate more than anything; saying What are we having tonight? We? I didn 't know she was eating with us. I don 't know if she was trained to say that, or if she just chose that pronoun. But if it is training, that needs to change. We ordered a Tito 's and soda, and an Old Fashioned. Both were very good. We each chose the tasting menu which is VERY reasonably priced. We then could choose a dessert or dessert beverage. We started with the pear salad, which my wife loved, and the rooted skillet, which was a perfect combo of everything I love. We then had the meatballs and the scallop pasta. The meatballs had good flavor, but were very salty. The scallop pasta was very well balanced and our favorite dish of the night. Our mains were the chicken breast, and the baseball steak. The chicken dish was so salty that I even said something to our server. (I tried to eat my leftovers for lunch the next day, but it was still too salty). The steak dish was teetering on the edge of also being too salty. When it came to dessert, we decided to take it home. We were very disappointed that they were out of two of the four desserts. All they had left was the bread pudding stuffed croissant and ice cream. I know a lot of people raved about the croissant, but we thought it was misrepresented by it 's name. All it was was chocolate pudding inside a croissant and then drizzled with caramel. There was no bread pudding at all. For a restaurant that is on Cincinnati Magazine 's top 10 list, I would expect more attention to the details and more consistency in seasoning."
