A rare treat to eat out for lunch, but I was helping my mother move, so she wanted to treat us. I tend to think that The Heights can be a hit or miss kind of place, but their misses generally don't miss by much. Now to lunch....
The staff is usually spot on and very proper, but I was not impressed by our waiter today. He seemed very nervous, curt and unfortunately rather disinterested in serving us. The menu is nice, with a good variety of salads, with the option to add fish and chicken, entrees, sandwiches and pizza.
Caesar salad: I asked for a small salad to start, which was delicious. The caesar dressing is fantastic and they certainly do not skimp on the cheese. The croutons today were made from a kalamata olive bread, a very nice addition and a wonderful compliment to the anchovy in the dressing.
Grilled chicken with detali pasta, kalamata olives, garlic and pistou: This dish was pretty good, although I think it was a bit oily. The chicken was grilled nicely, and very flavorful. Overall the dish was well balanced and light with a nice finish to all of the flavors. I think the pasta was tossed with oil before the pistou was added which could contribute to the slight over use of oil. Still, it was delicious and something that I would order again.
Brownie profiterole sundae: Dessert with lunch is a bit ostentatious, but we were sharing, so it is fine. The brownie was great, but the profiterole was stale, oh well, it was still good.
I would certainly keep going back for lunch, especially with the cubano sandwich and the pulled pork on the menu, two of my personal favorites.
