text: Pretty decent restaurant just not as amazing as I was expecting nnWent here on a date with my husband and we both agree it is not a great date spot unless you do not like to talk to your significant other It was far too loud for any sort of conversation and the tables were so close together you could hear what everyone around you was discussing nnOn the flip side the food was very nice We had the Caesar Salad Salmon Hot Cold scrumptious Duck Two Ways Filet Short Ribs and the apple and baklava desserts Everything came out gorgeously plated though we found the portions to be a little small nnThe salmon app was cooked to perfection as was my duck breast The husband insists his short ribs could have been cooked more but I had some and they were pretty tasty nnOne random sidenote there was a medley of delicious but unidentifiable roasted root veggies on my plate and one of them the orangeish one I hated violently It tasted like sour dirt I am confident it is a personal preference but I would love to know what it was so I can avoid it in the future I do not think it was the turnipsnnBack to the food dessert was also very tasty if a bit smallportioned And as an added bonus Spoon has a great specialty cocktail list I had the Vancouver in a Glass which was wonderfully scotchy and weirdly effervescent In my opinion an imaginative specialty cocktail menu gives a restaurant serious bonus points nnIts also worth noting that they had a very extensive wine menunnThe service was not bad not awesome either though I am still not sure who my server was which made it that much harder to tip At least three people came to the table more than once and we were a little overwaited onnnOverall I will be back but preferably with a group
