I was pleasantly surprised by the great vegetarian option at Grill 23 & Bar. They have a master chef who is simply amazing and will throw together a plate that includes anything you choose.
For example, I told my waiter that I was particularly interested in the asparagus and avocado sides listed as within the descriptions of other dishes on the menu. The chef included my selections and a number of other delectable veggie greats-- even fresh grilled peaches!
Also, the salads are terrific. I had the popular baby greens salad. Although it only has greens and goat cheese (no other vegetables), the salad is a great way to start any meal here. It has a unique balsamic house dressing that encourages you to actually finish the salad. The best part about it was the fact that the dressing wasn't too heavy. Sometimes, I worry about restaurants putting dressing on salad for me and order it on the side. But here, don't fear, it's a tasty treat.
I couldn't end a review of Grill 23 without mention of their excellent service. My waiter was a pleasure. He was attentive without being overbearing and made some great recommendations to the guests in my party.
