This place has been on our list for a few weeks now, along with Contigo, RN74, Starbelly, Wexler's and Ironside. More on those as we get around to eating our list, so to speak.Went there last Saturday night for what turned out to be a very quiet meal. The upscale-ish sports bar downstairs was completely empty (a couple of bored staff watching game 18 of 47 in the World Series*), while upstairs we were one of only 2 or 3 occupied tables for the "hot" 8.30pm Saturday night slot.
* Don't get me started on how they can hold a World Series of games featuring only American teams. I know half the players are Latino, but still ....
The food was very good. Decor was quietly hip. Service was impeccable (well, there was at least one server per occupied table), and with just each others' eyes to gaze into, we had a quiet gaze for an hour or so.
Maybe the downtown location says 'after work' rather than 'weekend romantic'.
