This was a fabulous lunch from beginning to end! The service was just out of this world as was the food! I had their marvelous French onion soup to start, and then a large order of steak tartare with pomme fritts! Then to top it all off I had a gorgeous hot fudge sundae with their special ice cream of the week, which was peanut butter and boy was it ever special! All topped up with a mountain of whipped cream and some beautiful toasted almonds. Please don’t share this with my cardiologist.

I had a wonderful dinner last night. This time I’ve tried their theater menu. And I am so glad I did! For appetizer, I had my favorite chicken lemon soup and for a main course I had the pan seared Bronzino. It was absolutely delicious. Let’s not forget about my cocktail Hachiko. It was very flavorful. And I absolutely couldn’t resist to try my dessert which was a part of the theater menu. The chocolate lava cake was fantastic. I highly recommend to try it out. Thank you again, Barking Dog for a wonderful welcoming and the best service! Happy new year 🎆
