We started with the duck confit flat bread which was great. A nice item to share and just the right amount of goat cheese. We split their pring salad, which was nice but not out of the ordinary. My wife had the grouper and that was cooked well and nice flavor, but the cous cous that came with it was cold, like right out the the fridge. She said it tasted good, but was surprised it was cold. I had the sirloin, which was recommended as one of the top dishes, but was very disappointed. The presentation was good, but it was a 5 pre sliced pieces. It was suppose to include artichokes, fingerling potatoes and carmelized onions. But no artichokes, which was why I ordered the dish. I love artichokes.
We had the coconut cake for dessert and it was excellent.
Service was fair. Our girl was very friendly and tried very hard. But she was definitely green. She was very nervous opening the wine. We tried to make her comfortable by talking to her. Learned she was the manager of Crystals fast food and this was her first server job.
I applaud the management that they are training these people. She knew how to present wine and open a bottle. She got the proper glasses for the wine. She knew not to touch the glass and was very cute in saying that they trained her not to do that.
I thought the manager was a bit strange. He came by once during our meal and I did mention that there was not artichokes and the cous cous was cold, but we love the place and will be back many times. He responded with a simple sorry about that and then was critical of the staff. A bit odd and not the response we were expecting. He did not seem very personable.
Well that is my review. Overall, we are very glad we finally have a nice restaurant in the area. We expect it will only get better and it is certainly beautiful. We will go many times.
