We went back to Burch steak for our annual holiday dinner. I don't think we'd made it back since we went for our anniversary a couple years ago. We had a reservation and were seated promptly.
We started with the seared scallops with lemongrass aioli. They were nicely seared and the aioli added a bright, fresh flavor.
The marlin crudo with coconut, cilantro and chili oil was very fresh and light. We both loved the and would order it again.
The first of our sides was the roasted carrots with thyme and chèvre. These reminded me of the carrots at Bar la Grassa and were very flavorful and delicious.
At the recommendation of our server for a potato we went with the pommes purée with poutine and horseradish. The potatoes were actually quite mild and did not have strong horseradish flavor.
For our steak, we tried the grass fed Manhattan cut steak. It looked a bit overdone at first glance, but was prepared correctly once we cut into it. The meat was tender, but a little dry. I don't think we'd go with the cut again.
We enjoyed our meal a lot and found the service to be great throughout our visit. We really need to go back and try the pizza from the bar in the basement bar area. I guess we tend to forget about Burch as it is on the edges of Uptown, but not quite downtown. It is definitely worth the trip!
