Garlic soup
Sweet potato brioche

Garlic Soup and the Lamb were both really good.

I was a little disappointed in the chicken liver pate and the smoked salmon beignets. We went last Friday.

Garlic soup? I have never tried. Say the recipe.

Cream based soup with some chicken stock and garlic. Some little fried garlic as a garnish. Out of what we had (Apps: Chicken Liver Pate, Smoked Salmon beignets, Garlic Soup Entrees: Seared Duck Breast and Pepper crusted Lamb Loin), the garlic soup, to me, was the best thing we had all night.

The waitress mentioned the Goat Cheese Crouton as her favorite starter, so I'll probably have to try that if I go back.

ETA: Found this recipe on Food & Wine by Susan Spicer
Garlic Soup Recipe.

Apparently not cream based though.

Sweetbreads! Either the app or the main course. Can't go wrong.

Also, the sweet potato brioche is major-league addictive.

We almost got sweetbreads but just didn’t feel like them last Friday...apparently I’ll have to go back just to get them.

Sweetbreads and Salmon have been menu staples for a while and both really good. Same with the Goat Cheese Crouton and Garlic Soup.
Great cocktails and wine list.

Was fantastic.
Wife had the revillion menu... goat cheese crouton, garlic soup, green Thai curry scallops. Crouton was very good. Garlic soup was pungent. I enjoyed it, was a bit much for her. Scallop with crunchy fried rice and green curry was phenomenal.
I had all apps.. rabbit liver pate with pickled veg was a very nice mix of richness and acid on a very nice crostini. Mushroom bisque (special soup) was good, not great. Veal sweetbreads with lemon caper were very well done. Oyster gratin with artichokes and tomato was very tasty.
Best bite all night was probably the scallops.
Attentive, but not overbearing, service.
Overall, very satisfying experience.
