I finally got over to Forequarter last night and was very impressed.\n\nWe came around 8:45 and had to wait twenty minutes for a party of 6, which isn't bad at all. The place is small and we were put in the dark as night back hall with the bathrooms to wait which was kind of weird, but they took our drink orders from there instead of us having to go to the bar which was good. \n\nThe place itself reminds me of an upscale tavern or something. Maybe a speakeasy. It's dimly lit and sort of minimalist but very comfortable. \n\nOnce we were seated the service was very good. Our food came out quickly and our waitress was really nice and not pretentious at all. They don't split checks as a policy, which a lot of servers at upscale restaurants have even told me is the most bogus thing ever, but she was willing to put different amounts on each of our cards so that was helpful.\n\nThe food was FANTASTIC. I got the fried poussin which was tender, flavorful and went perfectly with the polenta it was served with. Others got the steak which they loved and the pork belly. A few complained that the portions were a little small, but nobody didn't love what they ate.\n\nI also ordered the Elderflower cocktail. It was pretty tasty but wasn't that unique. Not quite at the level of say Tornado Room's cocktails, but they had some good interesting other options. \n\nI can't wait to go back and try something new from the constantly evolving menu. Hoping the next experience brings it up to 5 stars as it's pretty darn close!
