"We accidentally ordered a side of asparagus, which was just okay. Personally, I prefer grilled asparagus, but that’s just my preference. The bread and assorted butters were delightful, and I appreciated the variety of salts and freshly cracked pepper available on the table—it was a nice touch. My husband tried the Caesar salad but found it too heavy on the anchovies; he finished it anyway.
As for dessert, the crème brûlée was just average for me. While I’m not a dessert expert, it tasted more like vanilla pudding with caramelized sugar on top. I suppose I had expected something different, though I’m not sure what. Looking back, I wish I had opted for the chocolate cake instead.
I did get to meet Millie, our server—and she’s quite popular, as I mentioned to her—she seemed pleased to hear it. Interestingly, she helped deliver our food. I would definitely consider returning for another visit to try different dishes, but I still hold a fondness for our usual choice, Saltgrass, which offers a satisfying meal at a more affordable price.
The Gruyère cheese scalloped potatoes were nice, but I’ve had better at some local restaurants that feature a creamier texture and stronger cheese flavor. These were lighter and not as cheesy, so they were just okay. One thing that surprised me was when the busboy came to our table and started clearing our plates without asking if we were finished. I still had half a roll, a few bites of potatoes, and some asparagus left. I think it’s only courteous to check with diners before clearing their plates. Overall, I felt that was a bit rude and unprofessional. Just my two cents!"
