We chose this place to eat before attending a concert at St. Ignatius. We made a reservation for 6:30 p.m. When we arrived, the staff was busy moving tables around to create seating for more diners. (I don't think they were expecting a crowd on a rainy Sunday night.) In any case, there was no open table for us, so we were invited to sit at the bar. This wasn't what we had in mind, but there wasn't a whole lot of choice in the matter. Bottom line: We're glad we stayed. Management treated us to a glass of wine, and the staff won us by being extremely warm and friendly. My wife noticed that one of the dishes on the menu contained a spice she hadn't been able to find. A few minutes later, our server brought out naan with a dipping sauce that contained my wife's "missing ingredient" and she was also given a small plastic container of the spice to take home (as well as being told at what market she could find it). The food was also very good, both my lamb and salmon kabobs and my wife's puff pastry dish exceeded expectations. One night when we have a bigger appetite we want to go back for the house specialty: a lamb shank that can be prepared four different ways. No table turned out to be no problem. We were joined at the bar by three or four other couples, and the bar wasn't being operated as a bar -- it was just used for overflow seating.
