Bonefish Grill, Little Rock

Place: Bonefish Grill - a quiet yet vibrant establishment off of Cantrell Road in West Little Rock. Yesterday was my first visit and I was VERY impressed. The lighting is dimmed enough to make each customer feel at peace but not too intimate. I went with friends for a birthday party and it went very well. We didn't have to worry about getting too loud, but if you and your friends would rather get drunk and pass out on the floor, then Bonefish is not for you. But if you want a setting that is sophisticated, modern, and comfy, then definitely visit this place
Meal: Sea Scollops, Shirmp w/ steamed Veggies - A very light pairing. The seafood was wonderfully prepared with a chimichurri sauce suggested by my waiter. The portion was adequate because I was not starving when I got my meal, but if you are truly hungry, you should go after something more filling (perhaps the sea bass or the mountain of mussels). The veggies were slightly over salted, but not to the point of being unable to eat them. The downfall of the meal was the succotash. The lima beans were almost crunchy and the corn was the consistency of baby food. It was the one part of the meal I could've done without.

Overall: Bonefish Grill is a must visit to any visitor of Little Rock Arkansas. Its atmosphere, great seafood, and wonderful staff earns it a **** & 1/2 * from me.
