Here\u2019s What I Tried:<\/p>\n

Signature Cocktails:<\/p>\n

Their full bar features classic and craft cocktails using fresh juices, fruits, herbs, house-made cola, house-made ginger beer, shrubs and cordials.<\/p>\n

Bon Vivant, with Crater Lake vodka, Pomegranate Juice, cranberry juice, lime juice, simple syrup, and tonic. They present this cocktail with it bubbling and then a long tube releases the Crater Vodka, the whole presentation is like a magic trick. Now you see the vodka now you don\u2019t!<\/p>\n

Dirty Martini, from James Bond, this martini really made an impression.<\/p>\n

Desert Sunrise, with Titos vodka, aperol, orange, grapefruit, lime, agave, and grapefruit bitters. A very smooth thirst quenching experience, with all of the lovely citrus flavors.<\/p>\n

There was a nice variety of amuse-bouche: a small complimentary appetizer offered, Orancini with mushroom and cream sauce. Zucchini Fritter, potato cake with tzatziki Sauce. Zucchini Ribbon held together with a chive, crostini with avocado and goat cheese, and butternut orange spiced sorbet. These little gems were all terrific, be careful not to eat too much otherwise you won\u2019t have room for all of the first and second courses.<\/p>\n

Conversation Starters:<\/p>\n

Grapefruit Crab and Avocado Salad, with local grapefruit, avocado, crab, arugula, and a dash of citrus vinaigrette. Chef Joane made the choice for me to try this salad, she made the right call. The crab is sweet and fresh and works well with the sweet grapefruit.<\/p>\n

Grilled Brie, with warm blackberry, ginger and jalapeno chutney, crostini. This would be something you would make as a party platter, but here it\u2019s done with such attention to detail that you too will fall in love with it.<\/p>\n

Cauliflower, walnut basil pesto, mascarpone, and Romano. A dieters heaven, with very little calories and so wonderful.<\/p>\n

Main Topics:<\/p>\n

Brandt Farms Beef Tenderloin (7 oz.), bourbon smoked black pepper crusted, spinach, rustic smashed caramelized shallot potatoes, mushrooms, and red wine demi glaze. The presentation of every dish is like a sculpture; so many wonderful things to look at and the dollops of the various sauces are off the charts.<\/p>\n

Diver Scallops, hazelnut crusted, parsnip puree, saut\u00e9ed shaved Brussels sprouts, bacon and apple, and apple gastrique. These were by far my top favorite scallops dish ever and I have tried lots.<\/p>\n

Maple and Balsamic Glazed New Zealand Lamb Chops, with thyme, almonds, couscous with feta and mint, pomegranate seeds, and zucchini. The combination of all of these components and the beautiful medium rare lamb chops were just exquisite.<\/p>\n

Wines:<\/p>\n

Sauvignon Blanc, Justin \u2013 Paso Robles, the perfect choice for the brie with its nice peachy taste.<\/p>\n

Orogeny, Chardonnay \u2013 Russian River, I would try this wine with the grapefruit crab salad, it just works!<\/p>\n

Raeburn, Chardonnay \u2013 Russian River, it\u2019s got to be the scallops as the star of the show, paired with this amazing wine.<\/p>\n

Zinfandel, Concrete Old Vine Zinfandel \u2013 Lodi, I just love a great Zinfandel with lamb chops, it really goes great together, with the same sensibility.<\/p>\n

Cabernet, Daou Cabernet \u2013 Paso Robles, a real winner with the beef tenderloin.<\/p>\n

Interesting Reds, Michael David Inkblot \u2013 Petite Verdot \u2013 Lodi, this wine works great with the lamb as well.<\/p>\n

Dessert:<\/p>\n

Deconstructed banana Cr\u00e8me Pie, with caramelized bananas, so delicious, fresh and inventive.<\/p>\n

Cracker Jack Sundae with Cracker Jack popcorn gelato, such a great refreshing desert, very creative, I just loved it.<\/p>\n

There is a Private Chef\u2019s room that is exclusive, and intimate. It is separate from the main dining room with a private back entrance, adjacent to the kitchen featuring a wall of glass so guests can watch the Chefs in action. The Chef\u2019s tasting and themed dinners are offered and are available for private parties.<\/p>\n

At Dish, they pride themselves in creating new and exciting contemporary American cuisine with an emphasis and focus on flavor. They use exceptional ingredients including the best available local and organic products whenever possible. At Dish, they believe that food should nurture not only the body, but also the mind and spirit as well. The intimate dining room encourages the enjoyment of their modern cuisine, conversation and connection.<\/p>\n

Dish was Winner of Diners Choice, 2015, Open Table. Happy Hour is Tuesday \u2013 Sunday from 4:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. and Late Night Happy Hour from 8:00 pm to 10:00 pm. Join Dish at the After Dark “Speakeasy” night with Keisha D. every Saturday night from 10:00pm till midnight, and try their Speakeasy special cocktails.<\/p>\n

This place pulled out all of the stops, I just loved how every dish was a work of art, and that the interior is elegant but subtle, using modern d\u00e9cor, but is still comfy and inviting. For me Dish has everything a diner could want: marvelous food, a very sexy enticing atmosphere, paying major attention to detail and a great wine selection. What more could you want?<\/p>\n
