Well, all things considered, a bit of a disappointment...I was hoping for something "really new and different and exciting". 

The Caesar Salad with four "wood oven broiled" shrimp for $11.95 was a bit much for a slightly better than average Caesar salad and shrimp.  I could have opted for the Caesar with chicken for three dollars less...probably a better deal...but the salad as an entrée was quite small.  At least the dressing was good, fresh and made in the restaurant...not the white gloppy stuff.  But the Romaine lettuce was again long and clumsy and had to be cut with a knife. 

My dining companion had a Pesto chicken sandwich ordered without tomatoes...which promptly arrived with tomatoes.  She proclaimed it to be not quite as good as La Buca's...but it was twice the price. 

We had to ask for bread.  It had some sort of "sail" made of a parmesian flavored thin cracker...quite good; two small pieces of focaccia and two small pieces of olive pugliese.  The focaccia was unexceptional...the pugliese was quite moist and excellent. 

Food: A-. Attitude: A. Ambiance: A. Parking: downtown Seattle...good luck. Service: A. Value: B.
