text: Do not ask me why but I keep singing Maria Maria with Bonterra in place of the Marias weird I know but I have been doing it ever since we planned to go for Restaurant Week Anyhoo My experience started when I pulled in the parking lot The way they positioned the sign it appeared that half was reserved for valet wrong All of it was reserved for valet I was told not to park there and rarely carry cash so I turned around and parked in the lot down the street My friend had the same issue so perhaps they should move their sign nnWe received some bread with oil so no delicious herb butter as others mentioned The bread was not warm nor particularly flavorful so it was just ok nothing special I ordered the filet but asked if I could swap out the sweet potatoes for literally anything else as I honestly cannot stand sweet potatoes in any form but fries He just said NO the chef was strict about that which I suppose is understandable to be fair no substitutions was written on the menu but at least offer to ask or heck even pretend to ask I then just asked if I could have my sweet potato on the side instead in order to avoid that maple mess from touching my beloved steak or broccoli raberaab not said in those exact words mind you nnI get my steak and it is served upon the mashed sweet potato and under that was the broccoli I transferred the steak immediately to my small plate and asked if I could get some fresh broccoli on the side He said oh they should not have done that and thought yea they should not have but you are the one who brought it out and served it to me and it is bright orange Anyway after speaking up I was happy because I received even more broccoli than previously however I had to eat off my side plate for the duration of the meal I will say the steak was cooked perfectly rare girl here and seasoned nicely with salt and pepper I tried a bite of shortrib which was spectacular but it was paired with way over cooked gnocchi nnOther dishes I ordered were the pappardelle with rabbit Quite tasty although I would have liked a richer sauce I tried my friends feta croquettes which were good and I also liked the frisee salad awesome dressing Another friend ordered the soup which had way under done chickpeas in it and was not very good The desserts we had were good The consensus at the table was that the praline cheesecake took the prize The chocolate molten cake was good however the green tea ice cream was my favorite but melted extremely quickly because it was scooped with a melon ball yes really and the plate was warm I initially wanted the rhubarb trifle but it mysteriously was not on the menu nor was it mentioned bummer nnThe venue itself is very nice an old restored church I will say my napkin was ripped to shreds not what you expect when it is suppose to be fine dining The napkin was also white and I wore black but I did not fault them too much because that is nitpicky The big issue was that the service was downright cold and distant I realize it is restaurant week but we had a late reservation and the place was not overly busy I think our server could have done a much better job
