"We had a delicious dinner Laboratorio Kitchen last night. Be forewarned, it's BYOB. Thank goodness someone who knows the area mentioned that to me. Fortunately there is a fantastic liquor store a few steps down the block if you'd like a cocktail or wine with your meal. IMO, when a restaurant doesn't serve alcohol, it changes the flow of the evening. It's just too rushed. Our first course came out so quickly. Thank goodness it was delicious. I had the special beet salad, which I would love to have a again. The arugula salad was of good size and yummy as well. The salmon special of the evening was fantastic. Definitely a fan favorite and very generous piece of salmon. I cannot forget the house-cut fries, which perfectly seasoned and cooked. They are worth a table share ! The ambiance was hopping, but decor is a bit . The booth seats were literally slippery and not clear if they were made of fabric or plastic. Since the food was so delicious though, I would recommend Laboratorio Kitchen, but be aware of its short comings."
