A review: AOC
DH and I went to AOC on Saturday for a belated anniversary dinner. Our thoughts:
- We had terrible service. I know this is not the norm, but it soured the experience.
We ordered:
- Chicken liver crostini. I didn't eat it, DH thought it was fine but pricey for what it was. I tasted the salad it came on and thought it was way oversalted (and I looove salt)
- Speck, arugala, apple salad. It was fine. Not special. It seemed to be missing something. In fact, there were some bread crumbs left on my plate (because they didn't switch plates after we ate the bread!!) and the crunch helped it out, LOL
- Beet salad. This was good. The beets were yummy, and it came with baby carrots, and quail egg (which was not indicated on the menu. weird)
- Orata. Fine, a bit fishy.
- Quail. This was the best. Served with pistacios, pomegranates, and couscous. Yummy.
- Dessert: Apple crostini (I think that's what it was called) Really good, buttery crust.
Side note: given they're small plates and meant to be shared, it was really weird that the Orata and Quail both came in one entire piece with no knife provided for splitting. They're not really foods you can pick at directly from the plate it came on.
Overall, we weren't impressed, despite all of the great reviews I've read.
BUT, we are going to The Foundry on Melrose this Thursday for my B-day! Thanks for the suggestion!
