Osetra

We had a delightful 70th birthday dinner here. I love the space with its modern styling and high ceiling but narrow profile so that it doesn’t get too noisy. The service was amazingly attentive and friendly, and the food was superb. It left us wanting to immediately go back and try all of their other dishes.

We arrived starving, so right off we ordered the sourdough bread, which was wonderfully grilled with a bit of olive oil on it. We added a little flaked salt, and it really accompanied the Champagne we ordered.

Because it was a special celebration, we of course had to have caviar. The offer for the complete raw bar assortment was the perfect way to go. It included a full tin of Osetra, plus half a lobster, a generous portion of truly jumbo prawns, a lot of oysters on the half shell, a large serving of a delicious scallop crudo. Slices of their red tuna and some very tender young octopus. Also on the plate were a variety of sauces including cocktail sauce, mignonette, and hey, delicious mayonnaise-based sauce.

It was a feast for two, and we could not do more, which left us craving all the delicious vegetable preparations on the other side of the menu. We almost went back the next day!
