the spot at prospect and grand

new "american bistro" in the old deacon blue location.

looks like they were having a friends and family event last night.

anyone know anything about this place? i LOVE the tree painted on the wall.

I saw that last night and meant to ask as well. Someone share the scoop!

they said today is their public opening, last night was friends and family. They didn't have their menus printed up yet so not sure what the food is going to be like. The guy I spoke to seemed friendly and was excited to spread the word that they were opening.

I walked by on Saturday as they were just opening up and while they didn't have their carryout menus available yet I did take a minute to check out the selection. Aside from the fact that I had to restrain myself from offering to copy edit the thing (so many misspellings and bad apostrophes, ack!), it looks pretty good. Of course, now I'm blanking on the dishes, but there's a lobster ravioli that sounds particularly intriguing. Walked by again on Sunday around 1pm and it was packed with happy-looking brunchers. It definitely looks worth checking out.

i saw a number of ceviches on the menu (eat-in only for ceviche). some listed as mexican, some as peruvian; various kinds of seafood.

Had the grilled tilapia (bad spelling, sorry) and it was very good. Also did brunch on Sunday, lots of food for a fair price. They still have a few kinks to work out, but I give them a little room to get it worked out. Glad to have that spot in use again... it was vacant for too long.

I got this menu on my doorstep. "Eclectic" is an understatement.

i walked by on sunday during the brunching hours and they had a sign up saying that they had unlimited champagne/mimosa brunch! don't know if this is just an opening weekend thing or not.

I really wanted to like this place. To me, the menu seemed strange and disjointed, so I though brunch might be a better bet.

I wish I could say that the food was just mediocre, but it was actually flat-out bad.

Our waitress was sweet but slow and scattered. And from what I could hear, it wasn't just with our table. I know brunch can be a very busy shift and that it can get hectic, but she dropped the ball repeatedly. I can overlook that if the food is delicious, but it was pretty bad.

Overall, it was disappointing, and that makes me sad.
