Beautifully seared, crusty yet medium-rare, bone-in, rib-eye for two with a chanterelle, lobster reduction sauce. Absolutely stunning. It was all I could do to keep from gnawing the bone. The waiter hinted it might not be appropriate. If the sauteed cauliflower in a nutty cheese sauce was served as an a la carte vegetable, this might as well be the best steak house in town. But that would be far too limiting for Holly's ability. The menu is filled with creative, Italian and French inspired dishes made with local, seasonal ingredients. The wine list, while pricey, was thorough and trustworthy. We picked two $60 Barbarescos that were great, even at that bargain price. The ambiance make this a romantic place that serves what I believe to be the Eastside's highest cuisine. My only wish was that I knew the menu was a la carte. I would have ordered more.
Pros: Exceptional Food, Trustworthy Wine List, A Romantic Evening
