4 solid stars.
Took a small side trip to geneva this weekend and was surprised of the cute food selections available and preservation was one of them!!
It was a chilly Thurs evening, so 3rd street was kind of empty but preservation was hoppin'. Â We got there at 7pm and snagged the last 2 top, the bar was full. Â The space is small, so get there early for a spot.
The wines: we ordered by the glass.. they are pricy glasses for the quality of wine but there is a big selection if you're looking for a good bottle.
The food: Â was fantastic! Â we really enjoyed all the food we ordered but here's a breakdown.
Loved:
- Beef cheek salad: they said it is a new item on their menu and I think it's a hit. Â The salad itself was a bit overdressed, but the meat was under seasoned so together they flavored well. Â Great salad option!
- Charcuterie plate: we went for the non-spanish one, which included speck ham (italy), elk sausage (my fav, from US) and duck proscuitto (can't go wrong with duck proscuitto)
- Wild mushroom tart: smeared with just a big of goat cheese, you can't go wrong here, great dish!
Service was good and personable.
Overall a great experience, would def return if we were ever in this neck of the woods again!
Have heard many, many good things, so we had high expectations going in. Â Food was good, but not exceptional. Â Menu is eclectic and it was fun trying different things. Â Dining area is very small and tables are tight, but staff are very friendly. Â I would go back, but this is not our favorite restaurant on 3rd Street.
Review Source:Have been here at least 6-8 times ands never disappointed. Â Really high quality foods and very unique wines as well. Â Cozy place and patio. Â Lawrence, the owner, is great. Â I have to say that the servers can be a bit uneven, though - experiences here have not always been warm and fuzzy.
