6. We had intended to visit their bar happy hour for a drink and snack, but the menu was so good that we ended up simply having a dinner of small tastings -- carpaccio, tuna tartar, kobe sliders, cheese plate, etc. Service was professional, swift and friendly, and the setting was cattle baron comfy with dark woods and deep leather seats.

7. We were astonished to find lots of empty tables when we finally got in (I would like to add at this point that we are well-dressed, sophisticated and well-travelled!) The dinner was extremely good but the waiters could have been trained in Paris they were so condescending.
