Blue Duck Tavern for dinner? Other suggestions?
we just returned from dc, and a fabulous meal at blue duck. i think you would really enjoy it! honestly, we treated ourselves to nice dinners while we were there because that's where we like to spend the time and money- on great food. i really did not think blue duck was all that much more expensive than the other places we tried. we saw a lot of variety on the menu, which was a welcome change, and excellent, friendly servers.
good luck with your meal :)
Memorial Day in DC

Re-opening for O'Connor's/Stage House Tavern in Somerset?
i also live about a mile from o'connors and have heard from some ppl that there are TONS of renovations happening there including a covered patio for summer nights. i believe it is going where the "catering hall" section was....boy am i going to miss that salad bar!
ditto on luchento's except making it more "lounge-like" on the inside didn't help their food. i'd prefer the old luchento's any day!

Za's in Pennington
was there for sunday lunch and saturday dinner- both experiences were positive with high quality food that packed a ton of flavor. been meaning to go back there but keep forgetting- now that you've refreshed my memory i'll have to make plans to go back.
Anyone tried Luchentos in Millstone yet??
went for dinner and was less than pleased. we have been patronizing luchentos for years for various family occasions and were so excited to see it opening up again
-familiar favorites from the menu are now missing. the inside front cover of the menu states "tommy luchento will make any meal you desire provided we have the ingredients". well, we requested an old favorite which they had the ingredients for, based on other menu items, and were told "no". it remains to be told whether or not our terrible server even asked the chef. i sincerely doubt he did since it took him 20 minutes (YES, 20 minutes!) to take our order
-and about that service....TERRIBLE! i have a history in the food service industry, including opening one, and they were lacking in several areas. it took 5-7 minutes for someone to even say they will be right with us. then, they opened our wine and we did not see them for another 10....with no wine glasses or water poured!!! at this point, we just wanted some wine glasses and, since we had time to pretty much memorize the menu, someone to take our order. bread was cold, salad severely overdressed
-side dishes accompanying meal consisted of oily vegetables and a non-descript tasteless potato log
-prices went up considerably which i would understand considering the circumstances, but have some quality of the food and service to justify it
