10 Arts Bistro And Lounge

Spicier and more latin than its former 10 Arts self, we tried the new Aqimero during restaurant week. Staff were attentive and helpful. The Paloma cocktail was delicious.I had the pepper salad and tasted the crispy calamari. I would recommend the pepper salad, only because its unique and delicious. The calamari was great too.The wood-grilled skirt steak is not on the regular menu, but should be. It was served over fingerling potatoes and an avocado sauce. For dessert, I had the corn flan, which was amazing. Not overly sweetened, so just right to top off the evening!

Should have gone to Applebees and saved $100 on the bill... The food was way too salty, and our server didn 't ask if we wanted a second glass of wine when clearly ours were empty. At the end of the meal he asked if we were done with our food ... like we were in a mess hall. I expected much more from the Ritz. The music they had on in the dining room was 80 's rock. Instead of a $130 bill we should have just gone to Applebees and spent $30.

My wife and I found 10 Arts on Open Table, which is very reliable, and made a Thanksgiving day reservation for three. Based on the published menu, we figured it would cost at most $200 plus tip and parking but we were shocked by a $110/person fixed price. To add insult to injury, we were charged for coffee after the meal. My wife's entree was five 1 dumplings and her dessert was a tasteless and soggy apple tart. My ice cream dessert was liquor flavored and I chose to skip it. When we arrived and the place was empty and our waiter was great. At the end of the meal it was busy and we had to ask for coffee and the check from the hostess. The meal, 2 drinks (plus 3 coffees) came to $385. $80 tip and $40 parking made it an expensive evening.

Every time, great food and service. Happy hour is great too. I recommend.
