So here's what I liked about it. The food, the service and the ambience. Yup. The food was good. They've started a new $20/two deal. Not sure why since it looks like very small portions. So....our table of 4 because we were hungry ate off the regular menu. Pate special--outstanding, charcuterie plate--outstanding, beet salad--very good. Porkloin main--outstanding, duck--outstanding, pork belly and scallops--great flavor......real problem with serving size. Two scallops, a dab of cole slaw and a 1/4" x 2" x 4" piece of pork. Oh yeah, a couple of tiny carrots. Not sure what point they were trying to make here because this was at the most appetizer size.....for $20 somethin' dollars!!! Tasted really good. Dessert?? The banana bread is absolutely outstanding!!!! The chocolate pie, not the molten cake was outstanding. So, from a food point of view it lived up to it's reputation. I also liked the ambience and the outdoor seating area was charming. So what's the problem? Well, in one dish out of 12 served the portion size was way too small. And.....it's noisy as all get out. If you're on a date and you're sitting across the person at the table, you probably won't be able to hear that person. I just spoke to the powers that be there and they said that sitting upstairs might help and didn't seem to have a real concern about it. Too bad. I will have to give it a second thought before I go back. I hate to yell!!! If it weren't for the noise, this would be 5 stars!!!
Pros: Delicous food, good wait staff
Cons: Very very noisy, can't hear the person across the table
