Review from Dave R.
3/8/2012
I was in the mood for a fish dinner and the special of the day was perfect. It was a pan-seared salmon filet topped with a grapefruit, fennel, blood-orange salad and served with a stuffed baked potato and broccoli and red cabbage side. Kori, my server, immediately brought out a bread basket with house-made cornbread and focaccia and a baguette from Le Croissant down the street. In short order she also appeared with my soup of the day, also included in the special, a creamy leek, potato, and bacon soup. I was not in the mood for wine but they seemed to have a pretty good variety of bottles on hand. Once I finished my soup, Kori brought out the salmon dish and I was not disappointed with my choice. The citris salad on the salmon really blended well with the seared and seasoned fish. The salmon was also perfectly cooked to be flaky and yet juicy. The other sides were also very complimentary to the main dish and cooked to perfection. My only slight disappointment was with the stuffed potato. Although very flavorful, it was a little dry and could have used a light sauce of some sort. Chef Fern Kirouac should be proud of his creations. I observed several other dishes presented to the tables around me and each appeared to be created with the same attention to detail, both visually and with unique flavor combinations. I doubt there is anything on the menu that would disappoint anyone with tastebuds.
The service was also impeccable and I felt like one of the neighborhood regulars. Very friendly and not snooty at all. Pricing is also very reasonable. My special was $22.95 and I left completely satisfied and not able to contemplate the impressive dessert menu.
