"Overall excellent experience in a beautiful and elegant venue with some opportunities for improvement. We were immediately greeted by the hostess, escorted to our table and greeted by our server, who graciously explained the menu. The assistant server poured water and offered lemon and cucumber slices. They also brought a tray of five bread options and two butters to the table—all were delicious. We ordered cocktails (which were generous) and were also given complimentary sparkling wine for an occasion we were celebrating. We were offered an amuse bouche fig drenched in gazpacho which was the perfect palate opener. We ordered appetizers trout (mousse) served with toast points and while it was very flavorful it was over salted. An iceberg lettuce salad was crisp and fresh and served decomposed with generous lardons and the perfect dressing. All three main courses were served simultaneously and the portions were generous especially the fried chicken. The fillet was Perfectly cooked Medium rare, the truffle pasta was al dente and flavorful but a bit heavy on the sauce. The sides of green beans and mashed potatoes were enjoyed though lacked the sophistication of the other dishes one green bean was not cut and very stringy; the mashed potatoes could have been better seasoned and were underwhelming. The servers were very attentive and often refilled drinks as needed without request. For dessert we ordered the banana pudding an inventive and delightful presentation but the banana pudding lacked a bit of flavor. The blueberry dusted chocolate mousse was unusual and grew on the palate with a few bites. Everyone we encountered was gracious and attentive. A few constructive criticisms: the assistant server cleaned the table crumbs with a napkin and appeared to wipe them onto the carpet—a proper crumbed and plate would have been more appropriate. The room itself is very large and lacked warmth. Overall, a wonderful dinner followed by by an exciting Grand Prix!"
