I had a good vibe from the beginning as a patron who was leaving as my fiancee and I were arriving said, "You're going to love it". I was a little nervous after reading reviews about the noise level and ambiance, but it seems like the management read those things and corrected any issues. The ambiance in the rear dinning room was very cozy/romantic with low light being accented by candles and white christmas lights on the "big wheel". As for the noise, although the place was not packed, the ambient music was at a good level and the abundance of tile didn't seem to be a problem. The food here is just great. Our dinner consisted of the Onion Soup, Steak Tartare, Seared Tuna Salad Nicoise and the Truffle Fries. All were outstanding. What was odd was there were a few pasta dishes on the menu and the special of the evening was rigatoni and meatballs. I would guess that they would be good, given the quality of the bisto dishes, just seems strange, that's all. The drinks were good as well with an ample selection of beers, wine and cocktails, which came in small and large sizes, which is a nice change for people like my fiancee who can't handle more than one typically-sized martini. The service was good with our friendly waiter offering suggestions and endorsments of our choices. I would defintely go back, for dinner or to grab a bite at the bar after work.

Pros: Food, drinks, service

Cons: Moderately pricey
