We looked forward to our first tasting menu experience after having an amazing time at Acero with their tasting menu. We were left underwhelmed with The Crossing and wish we would have spent the money and time out (have a young one, so don’t get time away often), elsewhere. The service got better as the night went on, but we had no introductions and waited about 15-17 minutes until someone came to get a drink order. Aspects of dinner were exquisite in flavor and originality, while others were bland and lacked excitement for the price and anticipation. The Spanish octopus was outstanding, but the tagliolini with the truffles added on (at $30) had little to no flavor. We both felt the trout was cooked perfectly but just average in flavor, yet the skirt steak entree was delicious. Both desserts were yummy. Neither one of us cared for the Panchu or mushroom soup aperitivos. I can’t say I’d return or advise visiting in comparison to other tasting menus or service around town, but we enjoyed parts of dinner. May have been an off night!
