That was the ONLY restaurant in Davis that had a different vibe from all the other restaurants. The Foundry might be OK but it's so LOUD and the food suffers from the manic atmosphere -- it's wildly inconsistent.. I was really hoping some South-End type place might take a chance. Like a casual French Bistro. Or something like Chez Henri. Or some excellent Asian Fusion tapas place. Or even a Highland Kitchen vibe. Putting the food first, not trying to get a bunch of people in for just drinks and so-so food. Is it because there are so many students around? I really think Davis could support an excellent food joint. So is it just too expensive to open a place up in Davis unless a heavy-drinking crowd is factored in?
