A Dining Event
Forget the ballet and the opera, dining at Circa is an event in and of itself.

The food, the service, and the atmosphere are exceptional.    [09 Jul 2002 23:38:15]

Terrible Experience
The food was mediocre at best. My chicken-fried quail was served on biscuits that were awful and this is a SIN for a southern restaurant even for one that considers itself haute cuisine.

Menu wasn't terribly appealing and the dessert selections sounded like items from the Dairy Queen - shortcake and bananna splits -- with peanut butter no less!!!

Ambiance and service were quite good -- not superb but no real complaints here.    [07 Oct 2006 13:33:38]
