I sat at the bar, the bartender was very attentive, if a little brash in his handling of the drinks and glassware. I ordered the Blackberry sage old fashioned, a nice, but not sublime, rendition of the bourbon classic. (The bartender set it down so wildly that it splashed onto the bar. It was almost cloying, but tolerable in its balance of sweet, orange, and bourbon.) Upon my server's recommendation I ordered the celery soup, which was flavorful, but overly thick and sweet. In fact I didn't finish it for fear it would ruin my appetite. I then had the Tuna Nicoise salad, accompanied by a glass of pinot noir. The salad itself was overdressed, but otherwise flavorful and garnished with flavorful and appropriately cooked vegetables. (The tuna was perfect. ) My experience was fine, but not something I'd soon repeat.
