text: I want to like Icon I have dined here times over the years and I keep coming back because I think that it must be improving because it stays open but I am now convinced that it exists solely based upon its proximity to the Overture CenternnThe food is average The service is average at best They do have a decent wine selection at a fairly moderate price point That may be the high point along with a decent cocktail menunnThe tapas menu is inventive but not wellexecuted nnLast evening the patatas bravas were overcooked and the sauce was very uninspired nnThe crab cake was too much breading and not enough craband only one crab cake for does not seem like a good value nnThe stuffed piquillo peppers were served too cold and the cous cous accompanying them was bland and flavorless It had clearly been microwaved too instead of reheated properly nnLastly the short rib served with manchego mashed potatoes sounded divine but it was stringy and not a good cut of meat The potatoes were fine but very light on manchego The sauce was the highlight but Icons kitchen was not very generous with it nnTwo diners left disappointed not full at all after four tapas and one drink each for nnIcon neither a good meal nor a good deal
