Needed a meaty pick me up before tackling chef Janie's new fall dessert menu!
I'm a big fan of this place and so was sadly disappointed when my order of corn beef empinadas, Dino sized bbq short rib and sautéed mushrooms on the side all came out either cold, burnt or lacking in filling.
Called our waiter over and explained the unhappiness and immediately he and the manager apologized profusely and instead of deducting a percentage off our bill told us "let start over on your order"
So menus were brought and the bad disappointing feelings quickly dissipated and we decided on the 21 day aged rib eye steak, Mashed potatoes instead of the fries and sautéed spinach. The 26 oz was perfect to share and share we did. This steak was utterly melt in your mouth glorious. Cooked to perfection and brought out in all its sizzling glory. The mashed potatoes were addictive and the sautéed spinach were quite good as well.
We moved onto dessert and of course couldn't resist and ordered the 4 new items for the season. The begneits were light and fluffy, the monkey bread had the right amount of cinnamon sugar sweetness with the perfect dense chewy bite to the dough, the coconut pana cotta was my least favorite, idk the coconut flavor was a bit much here sadly and the texture wasn't as soft as I was expecting it to be, the peanut butter one was absolutely fantastic but wished the peanut butter "mousse" on top was chilled a bit instead of room temp…regardless, our second chance ordering this night was a hit and I look forward to returning!
My wife and I came here the other night and were very impressed. The service and attention to detail was great. The food was very tasty and full of flavor. My wife had the pulled brisket taco appetizer and I had the Pastrami empanadas. Both were exquisite. I am not a fan of Pulled Beef, but my wife loved it.
The main course was great. Just FYI, the Baby lamb Rack, that my wife had.. was not baby at all! it was huge! and tasted great. I had the steak, can't remember which one, but was perfectly cooked medium. Along with Great wine and attentive service, it was great.
Another tip, if you sit next to the drapes it may get a bit cold in the winter, but they were accommodating and turned up the heat and closed more of the drapes.
I'm going to go with 3 stars for 2 very important reasons that make a huge difference to me and people like me who enjoy fine dining.
I dined at Bordeaux last night for my birthday. Firstly, upon entering we were greeted by a Maitre D and seated right away. The decor is really beautiful and old school. They kept the design from the previous restaurant and it truly does it justice.
Our waiter introduced himself, he was really nice young man who knew the menu RE what would be a good dish and was quite attentive. As a side note, while dining it was difficult to track him down. We had to keep asking other waitstaff to call him.
We ordered a bunch of apps; Aged Beef Carpaccio, Porcini Dusted Tuna, Pulled Beef Ravioli, Bordeaux Taco, Beef Burger Sliders and a Market Salad. Entrees we ordered the short ribs and the special which was a sous vide medium rare steak with mashed potatoes and courgettes.
Every single dish was quite mediocre and really I can't point to a single dish and say damn that blew me away. If you are charging these prices per dish, you better be selling yourself properly. Of everything we tried my favourite, literally the one thing I can point to and say that was good, was the side dish courgettes. You're doing something very wrong if that's my take. Especially coming from someone who has tried the other local kosher fine dining establishments.
Now, something else really ticked me off that I was appalled at. So you consider yourself fine dining and pricing above Brooklyn mediums yet between appetizers and entrees I wanted to give my waiter the dirty fork I used for my apps. His response was, keep it. You'll need it for the next course. That is unreasonable and very off putting. A fine dining establishment changes cutlery between courses.
On to desserts. We ordered the Deconstructed Smores, Chocolate Peanut Butter Explosion, Mango Shortcake, & another that I can't recall the name. I have always heard raving reports about the desserts here, but again, a real let down. Very underwhelming and tasteless. I was really expecting a WOW! at least one WOW!
Oh well, I'm honestly giving 3 because our waiter was quite nice and I had great company while dining.
