Ten
Tables
is
a
very
enjoyable,
homey,
comforting
experience
but
the
price
point
suggests
something
a
little
more
intellectual
or
surprising.
We
came
here
on
a
Saturday
evening
right
when
they
opened
at
5:30pm
and
were
greeted
a
little
strangely
--
like
they
were
surprised
to
see
us.
The
restaurant
was
empty
of
customers
but
it
was
also
definitely
past
their
opening
time,
so
I
was
confused
by
the
polite
if
bewildered
reception.
No
matter
--
we
grabbed
some
high-top
tables
in
the
first
room
when
you
enter.
We
ordered
the
lavender
cocktail
($14)
and
a
glass
of
rose
(somewhere
in
the
same
realm)
and
while
the
rose
was
thoroughly
forgettable,
the
cocktail
was
nice.
It
was
as
close
as
I've
ever
gotten
to
drinking
a
lavender-scented
drink
without
feeling
like
I've
buried
my
nose
in
a
pile
of
soap.
It
was
pisco-style,
and
the
froth
on
the
top
of
the
cocktail
was
nice.
For
food,
we
got
the
shrimp
dip,
the
TT
burger,
and
the
orecchiette.
The
shrimp
dip
was
a
little
too
salty
but
otherwise
perfectly
comforting
--
creamy
and
cheesy
to
pair
nice
with
crisp
crostini.
The
TT
burger
was
yummy
as
well,
topped
with
crisp
lettuce,
two
pieces
of
fatty
bacon,
a
sauce
that
resembled
McD's
special
sauce,
and
a
big
hunk
of
a
patty
cooked
medium
as
I
requested.
The
orecchiette
also
tended
to
saltiness
although
the
pasta
was
nicely
al
dente.
Wish
there
had
been
more
mushrooms
and
kale,
though.
Finally,
for
dessert
we
ordered
the
blueberry
upside
down
cake.
The
ice
cream
(vanilla
or
sweet
cream)
was
practically
melted
by
the
time
we
got
the
dessert,
but
the
cake
itself
was
nice,
jam-packed
with
blueberries
and
sort
of
crispy
on
the
top.
Overall,
we
paid
$125
for
the
meal.
Their
entrees
run
$30
per
(except
the
TT
burger)
and
most
appetizers
run
$10-20,
with
sides
running
$8.
Cocktails
are
expensive
at
$14
each.
I
think
Ten
Tables
is
a
great,
homey
restaurant
--
it
serves
up
comfort
food,
sort
of
like
what
you'd
want
a
REALLY
awesome
pot
luck
where
everyone
just
nails
their
home
cooking
to
taste
like.
It
just
doesn't
really
blow
me
away,
and
with
$30
entrees
I
might
go
to
some
place
more
innovative
or
off
the
beaten
culinary
track.
