In Short – Well-heeled businesspeople and couples dine in the divided dining room where linear, masculine, dark-wood accents are softened by plush burgundy banquettes and booths. The menu offers fresh variations on earthy, rustic Tuscan cuisine: A starter of creamy polenta with musky wild mushrooms gets a kick from peppery balsamic reduction; grilled dorado is sauced with a sherry-laced dipping elixir. Silky panna cotta with strawberries provides a sweet finish.

Great Ambiance - Average Value
by mrkevin at Citysearch
I ate here on 2/17/06 with a group of 4 friends for a pre-theater dinner served between 5-7PM. The $35 pre-theater menu is the best value, including choice of 2 appetizers (french onion soup recommended; caesar salad is average), 3 entrees (an excellent shrimp-risotto dish, a huge filet mignon with fingerling potatoes) and 2 decadent desserts, a tiramisu or a very dense chocolate mousse. The restaurant is clubby and comfortable. Our waiter was forgetful, working to our advantage-- he brought an appetizer of calamari to our table which we didn't order and was comped. The garlic bread/gorgonzola fonduta was also tasty. Drinks are steep. Our dinner with one extra appetizer for the table, one drink, tax and tip was $65 per person. You can get your valet ticket stamped at the restaurant and save by keeping your car there through the theater end for only $9.
- Pros: portion size, food presentation, atmosphere
- Cons: so-so value, so-so service
