Any update?

It seems like sewer lines are being fixed, and a few times W Hamilton was blocked by traffic police (had to go further west to go around the park)... but I don't see any action on the park itself.

Hopefully it is just delayed... like the Hamilton Square construction that was supposedly to complete in the fall.

Still see the two around (brunette with messy hair & blond with sunglasses).

I said hi to the blond as she walked by me... no response, no expression. Brunette still talks on the phone, and avoids eye contact. I guess both want to keep to themselves.

What the heck, it's a public park. Just hope they are not attracting unwanted/bad attention.

Which lot will this go up? Are they tearing down Pet Boys?

Stopped by the restaurant on this past Wednesday... wanted to give the place another shot since last visit.

We were pleasantly surprised by

1) half-price bottles (every Wed)!!!!!!!!
2) change in menu

Needless to say, we walked home very happy and full. The food certainly got better and the change of menu was a big plus...

Now just have to get my butt up in time on weekends try its brunch...

We went there last week for dinner.

I agree with some of the posts... the restaurant does have potential and I would not be so quick to judge, to be fair... after all, it is new and is trying to work out all the kinks.

The dining experience overall was NOT amazing... besides my food being unevenly salty (bad salt sprinkling job I hope), it did not stand out. I gathered that the restaurant is still tinkering with its menu given all these different specials that it is offering... a suggestion is NOT to put the lamb shank on the regular menu.

However, the staff was courteous, accomodating, and inquisitive - asking as what we like, don't like - so they can make amends. To me, it is a big plus in terms of melding into the Hamilton Park dining scene, with its own niche.

Still, I would give the restaurant 1-2 more months to adjust. It does need to step up before Hamilton Square gets its new restaurant tenants.

Best of Luck!

it says Fall 2008... take your pick on one of the fall months.

As a newcomer into Hamilton Park, I look forward to the new residents and shops...

Any idea when Hamilton Park renovations will begin? It needs a better look badly.

Not complaining given I rather have this good problem... with 100+ families coming in and $200/month parking in the building itself, the street parking will be a sought after commodity. It will be back to the days of my circling blocks after blocks in NYC.
