and from what I heard the chef say, if you don't like duck, they'll put the sauce on anything you want.

I tend to agree with Lamont -- food trumps atmophere. The best things I've eaten at Springhouse were the soups, the smoked quail corned bread panazella and their french press coffee is very good. I also like their bread. But, I had some sort of sliced sirloin steak dish that seemed expensive for what it was -- not terribly special. I appreciate the freshness of their ingredients, but I think they could kick up their seasoning a bit.
I don't know if it is when we went -- weeknights or at lunch, but the service can be dreadfully slow. I don't mind a leisurely meal, but one night at dinner I thought that they had to kill the cow. And I don't always find their wait staff that attentive, but I attribute that to their youth and inexperience.

But, it is a gorgeous restaurant. I've never been offered the opportunity to sit outside, but I would love to have that chance.
