Azure Grille

Four of us had a very good meal at Azure Grille last night. We ate outside away from the sidwalk and it was a very nice evening for doing so. The wine we picked from Australia, a Penfolds Shiraz-Cabernet was excellent and very well priced under $30. The crab cakes were great as appetizers, along with two of the salads we had - one the baby greens and the other a caesar. The bread was a big disappointment; WonderBread might have been better, and the size of the dipping oil/tapenade was a joke (one of the smallest I've ever seen). Main courses and service overall were wonderful. Three of us had the risotto which was done very well indeed, as was a shrimp entree. Dessert was first class, two of us having the blueberry and peach cobbler (the blueberries overwhelmed the peaches, however) and the other two enjoying a cantaloupe sorbet and a wonderful mint chocolate chip cheesecake.
