The pig and fig was an amazing appetizer and I could have eaten 5 of those by myself!The seafood special, cordon bleu and burger were definitely all dishes we will crave and return for. If you haven't tried Josephine, I highly recommend. You will not be disappointed.

The inside was actually bigger than I was expecting. There was a beautiful bar located on one side of the house. Overall, decor was elegant but not pretentious. You could come in casual attire and not feel out of place. Our waiter was very personable and had a great sense of humor. He took time to explain the menu and was extremely helpful when it came to helping us decide on what to get. Everything sounded fantastic especially the starters. I didn't get a cocktail but I did get a lovely cup of hot peach tea that was very delightful. My friend's cocktail was beautiful. We did get a sample of one of the sparkling wines which was very nice. Mt friends ordered several items and I tried most of them. The carrots were my favorite. I ordered the tots and caviar as my main meal. This is definitely the upscale, adult version of tots. The potatoes were very crispy and I was shocked by the amount of caviar for the price. All the food was beautifully presented. And everything came out hot. Meaning temperature hot. You could tell everything was cooked fresh. Overall, it was a great culinary experience. But the great service is what would keep me coming back.

I can see why Lone Pine is getting recognized by the James Beard Foundation this year. Why? In…read moreshort: The food is dope, the service is attentive, the restaurant is classy but approachable. But mostly it's for Aaron Hansen, the chef at Lone Pine. He's a semifinalist for the Best Chef: Great Lakes (IL, IN, MI, OH) category. What an honor! I'm curious to see if he gets the medal, but even if not, hopefully this recognition will draw people to visit Lone Pine, because people really need to visit. I don't know how Lone Pine would describe its menu, but I would call it elevated comfort food. One of the things my table ordered was chicken piccata. When was the last time you saw chicken piccata on a menu?! It was delicious, and served with mashed potatoes and lettuce leaves that added a nice, fresh crunch to each bite. We also got the roasted salmon, which was served with fingerling potatoes in a pesto sauce, with arugula on the side. This, too, was delicious and rich, yet fresh. I ordered the short ribs, which came with polenta and caramelized pearl onions. The short ribs were just fatty enough, and the sauce that they were surrounded by was unctuous and wonderful to eat with the polenta. I guess I should have started this review by writing about our first course! We got the French onion soup, bloody Mary wedge salad and the Caesar salad. The Caesar salad at Lone Pine is probably the best Caesar salad that I've eaten in Carmel, and maybe in all of the Indianapolis area. The thing that Lone Pine does differently and spectacularly is that they use breadcrumbs and not croutons. That makes all the difference! Granted, it does look a bit like a pile of pencil shavings on a plate, but sometimes the dowdiest foods are the best-tasting foods. The result is a satisfyingly salty, crunchy, creamy, crispy salad that I couldn't stop eating. I know I will be back to Lone Pine for the Caesar salad. We ended our meal by sharing two desserts: the apple pie panna cotta and the Lone Pine chocolate cake. Both desserts were amazing, but the cake won us all over because it looked deceptively heavy, but it was light and airy, and came with slightly sweet whipped cream. The service at Lone Pine is exceptional. They pay attention to detail here, and all of the little things are taken care of. Our server gave us just enough time between courses. Our water was refilled unobtrusively. We didn't get asked whether we've dined there before (because who cares?) and the menu wasn't over-explained (thank goodness, because I can indeed read). One thing we also noticed that we appreciated: The music was just loud enough to hear it, but not loud enough to notice it too much! It's these little things that come together to make a great dining experience.

Unfortunately, my second visit to Line Pine may have been my last... We attended last night for my…read moremother-in-law's birthday. She wanted to try a new "fancy" place in Carmel. My first experience at the restaurant was decent, so I figured we would give it another shot. I recall my first meal being a bone-in pork chop that was overly salted. I'll make my review brief. The restaurant was not too busy but our service was fairly slow, two separate drink orders that were requested never made it to the table, the environment was noisy/music too loud, etc. I decided to go with something very basic for my food order. My thought was, "I'll see how good they are at doing something simple." I got the black and burger cooked to the chef's preferred temperature (medium). My burger came out dry/crumbly/crispy/well done. Yikes. The server did offer to provide a complimentary drink while he asked the chef to prepare another burger (a nice gesture). However, the second burger came out raw (see photo). I'm a medium rare steak guy but this was inedible. The fries were very good. I'm not typically someone who is overly critical of restaurants but for the amount of money you're paying for these meals, the food and service should be excellent. My two experiences were fair and poor. This is very unfortunate because I've visited the sister restaurants (Beholder and Milktooth) many times and have had nothing but great experiences at both. Probably the last time I'll go.

This is a poor attempt at reviving paid for square footage from an equally poor attempt at an Irish…read morethemed pub. Whilst I'm no fan of MTM's, and Langton's demise was easy to predict, this review will focus on the folly that is the "new" wine bar. First, patrons are left scratching their heads at why the first floor of the former Langton's space is vacant and the Wine Bar is isolated to its former upstairs? Employees will tell you it's to utilize the first floor as a banquet space. Um, ok, but the space is visible and open to the upstairs wine bar. Conceptually that's odd and what will this actually be like from a guest experience when both the Wine Bar is open and the banquet space is in use? Second, let's talk decor. Nearly all the quasi-Irish decor is still in place despite the obvious conceptual change. Examples: the stained glass work, the artwork on the walls, and the usage of snugs. Third, let's talk televisions. Whilst the abundance of TV's (with sports on most) is a hold-over from Langton's, they have no business as part of a wine bar. In fact, one of Langton's and now the Wine Bar's shortcomings is having TVs in the remaining snugs. I've been to countless pubs in Ireland and countless wine bars throughout this country, none of which have TV's in snugs. It defeats the purpose of a snug. Fourth, let's talk music. Current pop/dance-type music is not congruent with a high-price point wine bar. The music simply doesn't match the concept. Fifth, the wine list is uninspiring. Nothing but well known, upper end labels and they are priced accordingly. Wow, you have Silver Oak, Decoy, etc. . . how imaginative! Listen, I appreciate good wine and will pay for it, but it's much more satisfying to see a well-curated wine list that is geographically diverse and price diverse. It's pedestrian to have a concentrated list of high end Napa/Sonoma offerings. Also, the staff seemed to have very little knowledge of the wine list itself. That's ok at a place that is $7-12 glass. It's not ok at a place that's $22+ a glass. Lastly, the food was a joke. Teresa ordered a cheese plate that looked like it was assembled as an afterthought. I lament not taking a photo. It was a sloppy, disorganized pile of cheese, dried fruit, and crackers that appeared to be remnants from other servings piled haphazardly. There was no description of the cheeses on the menu, nor was one offered by the server. Conclusion: expensive, poor food quality, sports bar atmosphere, uneducated staff, and feels exactly like what it is: a desperate attempt to rebrand a space as something else with no effort.

A friend of mine had been wanting to try Divvy for a while so we decided to go last Friday night…read more Unfortunately they are not on Open Table but you can still make reservations if you call the restaurant directly. We didn't really have much choice other than to sit at the bar which wasn't ideal. We ordered the Sliders which we both agreed were a bit too salty and heavy on the mustard. The cheese plate however was a hit. Probably the best beer cheese I've had yet. The drinks were good. We just missed happy hour so will come back for that next time.

We started with the "favorites" board, which consisted of a bbq chicken slider with Brie (tasty but…read morenot particularly memorable); corn brûlée (warm, comforting and original but overly salty); a little bowl of caprese salad (a well-balanced and bright contrast to the very rich corn dish but hard to eat out a tiny bowl); fried Brussels sprouts (fine but salty); and a tiny brisket taco (I didn't try that one). We were still a bit hungry after the board, so we ordered a "bacon flight" and some deviled eggs. And that is how I learned that bacon served with a sauce is not for me., whether is a spicy chili sauce, a creamy lime dip, a tomato aioli, or a butterscotch-chocolate concoction. The "savory" bacon option was egregiously salty. You might expect that when you're having bacon, but they added even more salt and it was too much. It turns out that I also do not like wasabi on a deviled egg. I would give Divvy 3.5 stars if Yelp allowed half-stars because I like the shared small-concept and our server was friendly. I found the execution on the food pretty uneven, though, so we're rounding down instead of up.

Chicken Wellington - the pastry dough was as buttery as biscuits. Sauce had dates and the dish was on the sweeter side (I prefer more savory entrees so this was not my taste) My partner ordered this and he loved it Miso Black Cod Fish was done well and not dry. Broth was a bit one dimensional to me. I thought my soba noodles were gonna be the brown ones but they were thicker like ramen white noodles The herbs really captured the pho broth well. I've noticed the effort put into the menu was done really well. I feel like with food fusion, I noticed a lot of things do end up getting misspelled but I noticed the accent and spelling were all correct on the menu. Liz was our server and she was very knowledgeable on the menu also!
