My parents were coming to town and my dad has long been a fan of Chuck's Day Off, so this was the perfect opportunity to score a reservation (and score some impress-my-dad points). \n\nIt's not a spot I would ordinarily seek out (I'm more of a diner/dive person than the fine dining type), but I couldn't help but be impressed by the impeccable service (water glasses were never empty, wine recommendations were bang on, and our server took the time to check in on us often).\n\nAppetizers were tasty - a simple cherry tomato salad with fried cheese croutons, and a boston lettuce salad with fried sardines and green goddess dressing were a fantastic start to the evening. \n\nMain courses were short ribs with spaetzle and a scallop dish. Both were perfectly cooked and delicious. \n\nFor dessert we ordered the \"famous\" deep fried mars bar, and while it was ok, it was nothing to write home about. We shared it between three of us, and couldn't manage more than a few bites each. Major sweetness, though paired with cold vanilla ice cream to offset the liquid sugar factor we made it work. \n\nOverall a fantastic meal. I'd go back again for a splurge - but it's not an everyday dining spot.
