    Probably my new favorite restaurant in South Bend. Great location, right on the river, walking distance to the Morris, and with a spacious (and unexpected) parking lot. Food was great. We had: - Complimentary bread was excellent, served with warm whipped butter. - Oysters were pretty much what you expect, with an excellent cocktail sauce. - Wedge salad was overall very good, and the bacon absolutely outstanding. - Buratta "salad" was essentially bruschetta, and was excellent. - Grilled lobster frites -- lobster was excellently cooked, and fries were perfectly salted and very crisp. -- A5 Myazaki wagyu ribeye cap -- this is the best deal on the menu. $40-60/oz at other places, and $19/oz here, the best deal you'll ever get; it was lightly salted and simply seared -- impossible to screw up, and the best steak I've ever had. -- Mashed potatoes were very high quality, very buttery. -- Chocolate layered cake was delicious, and all the desserts are prepared in-house by the pastry chef. Overall a fabulous dining experience, up to the standard of more expensive restaurants in much larger cities.
