Tommy, by "simple" I meant not overdone.

Tommy, by "simple" I meant not overdone.

fair enough. i always found the food at Dish quite complex by nature. well-executed, but complex nonetheless. in fact, the last dish i had there, which was about 2 years ago at the bar, was tuna carpaccio, which seemed a bit too overdone for my taste. lots of "stuff" which distracted from the tuna. that's probably a judgment call though.

i think at this point they could use a good dose of PR. if they're still executing dishes at the same level they were a few years back, Dish is certainly not to be ignored. holding it back, in addition to practically no marketing as far as i can tell, is the fact that's it not BYO. although their wine list, as i remember it, was well-selected, i get the impression that a bunch of byo places have popped up over the past few years that might be stealing a bit of business. that's just a guess though.

i have to wonder if they still get a lot of business from the music-loving hipsters that filled the bar practically every night when Bruce still owned it? i know that was a draw for me and my group of friends...none of whom have so much as mentioned the place in a long while.
