"We were promptly seated at one of the back booths, we are all spaced out from one another. Bon Jovi's living on a prayer is playing in the background right now. Abby is waiting on us. She's nice, attentive with our drinks and clearing our plates and split our scallops for us too. Guns N' Roses is playing now, knocking on heaven's door. They are clearly rooted in rock at this establishment. The host is diligently cleaning off tables, seats and even the door hatoo. Bowl of mushroom soup, small spinacia salad, small heirloom salad and scallops to split. Eating light since we aren't starving, but have been wanting to try this place out. Why not, since we are nearby. My limeade is rather syrupy sweet, but they tried at least. Asked for a club soda and lime instead. The mushroom bisque is not creamy and was rather underwhelming for me. I have had some fantastic mushrooms soups at Inn Season or at Cafe Muse, this one fell short for me. The mushroom is like a chow, food processed nicely after cooking, some creme fraiche dollop would even make it a bitsmoother and creamier even. Mushroom soup was a 2 for me, wasn't special or what I was expecting at all, especially as a bisque. The spinach salad wasn't bad, dressing was good, Brie slice was nice, almonds gave it a bit of crunch. The tomatoes were not ripe enough. Was a solid 3. The heirloom tomatoes look a bit over ripened to me, as were the watermelon, which shouldn't even be in season yet? The red pepper corns are a nice kick and texture to the salad. If I were to ever get this salad again I would get it with the dressing on the side, it was a bit heavy on the oil, still a decent dressing. Was a 3 for me. The scallops were perfectly cooked, nicely browned, risotto wasn't bad, hints of garlic, nice small slices of asparagus to keep the sizing in sync with the rice. The scallops were a solid 4. The service was quite good."
