Kim S. dined at Table 1280 on Saturday, Feb. 17th, with five companions - Keith & date, Alicia, Nicole & Sonjile.

What did you order? How was your food?

I only ordered an appetizer and it was very good; small portion, but very tasty and filling.
Tian of Peeky Toe Crab, Apple, Celery Root, Hazelnuts.

What did your companions order? How was their food?

APPETIZERS ORDERED: Red Wine Braised Octopus, Fingerling Potatoes, Sun Dried Tomatoes; Parsnip Soup, Chantilly, Prosciutto Dust.

ENTREES ORDERED: Wild Boar Ragu, Strozzapreti; Prime Sirloin, Brussel Sprouts, Turnips, Apples; Merlu, Eggplant Caviar, Garlic Cream.

Describe your impressions of the service. Was anything exceptionally good (or bad) about the quality of service you received?

The service was good. We had at least 5 people to bring each dish.

What do you think of the décor and atmosphere?

The décor was definitely modern with very clean lines, very white, almost cold. The high ceilings and floor to ceiling windows with a view to the courtyard were an added appeal. The atmosphere was pretty quiet, but comfortable. Not many guests dining in. Bar area was very airy and cool with floor to ceiling windows all around. Not much seating though.

Do you consider this a good value for the money you spent? If no, why not?

Decent value.

This restaurant is best for:

• Good food • Quick bite • Family-friendly

• Outdoor • Romantic • Special occasion

This restaurant is good for stopping by having a drink &/or appetizer before or after going to an event at the High Museum.

Summary

Overall, I thought the location was great; the high ceilings and windows added a nice touch to it. The service was great. A little disappointed in the limited choices of entrees on the dinner menu. The restaurant also has a tapas lounge on the other side.
Perk: Restaurant will deduct your $10 parking ticket cost from your bill.
