So we made resservations for this place for New year's Eve. It's pricey, but I'vealways wanted to try it. I've heard some good things and wanted to know if anyone here has ever been there. It's a fixed menu for the evening. I SO rarely get to go out to anyplace fancy-pants, so I am really stoked! Get to dress nice and everything!

It is a bit pricey, and I hear the comment "it's so expensive for what you get." I think I understand that when people see bits of uncooked food come out they think "I paid big bucks for this???" However, you will not come away hungry, the service is usually very good, and the food is so tasty. You'll savor each bite rather than wolf down a big dinner like so many of us do.** Our MP here ranges from casual (nice jeans or shorts) to upscale casual. I'm sure on NYE there will be others dressed up for the occasion, so wear what you like. They have some mighty tasty cocktails too so you might take a look at the drink menu before you go. Oh, and if there's a salad with some almonds or something it is reallllyyyy good.

That said, though, he did love the cheese fondue and really loved the chocolate fondue, especially after the waiter brought him a plate of just rice krispie treats which dh LOVES. I would try to go for cooking oil if you can, rather than in the wine or broth. The wine really colors the meat, which was a turnoff for dh (and I assume other people as well) and also in the oil it's more 'fried'-like and less 'boiled'.
