How might one describe the sentiment of this review?
My husband and I planned to eat at Spoon as our one fancy meal during a recent trip to Pittsburgh, and we were not disappointed. The servers were very attentive and did everything possible to make our experience memorable, and the food was wonderful. I started with the blue cheese gorgonzola souffle, which right now is being served with a stone fruit salad. (Mine was almost all peaches with a few plum slices.) By itself the souffle would have been too overpowering, but alternated with bites of the salad, it made for a very balanced dish. My main course was chicken two ways, which has been described here by others, so I'll just say that it was a wonderful choice and surprisingly filling. For dessert, I had peach-sage sorbet, which was divine! My husband is never quite as sure of himself in a fancy place like this, but he had a very good experience as well. He started with the prawns and cantaloupe, which he liked very much (although he was a little freaked out that the prawns were served entire). Next, he had the barbecued brisket, which was served with white cheddar mac 'n cheese and coleslaw. He thought the coleslaw, which contained red peppers and several other unusual vegetables, was a little strange, but he ate it all, and he thought the other components of the entree were very good. For dessert, he had brown sugar-cinnamon ice cream. It was a little bland for my taste, but he enjoyed it very much. I doubt we'll ever have the opportunity to dine at Spoon again, but it was a memorable meal and worth every penny....Available choices:
