The latest contemporary addition to SOMA

Prospect in the SOMA, opened by the Boulevard team, is a new Contemporary American restaurant that mirrors Michael Mina's RN74.  From the decor to the layout to the type of food, it really reminds me of RN74.  We decided to take my MIL here for her birthday dinner.  The service was outstanding and the food was good but the place is not cozy so not the best spot for an intimate quiet dinner.  High ceilings and very noisy so great spot for HH or group dinners.

Sea Urchin Risotto – nantucket bay scallops, razor clams, and crab broth.  This appetizer was outstanding...very flavorful risotto!

Seared Calamari & Octopus – house made chorizo, savory clams, aillade, and confit garlic potatoe.  Very tender and great strong flavor from the chorizo.

Steelhead Trout - roasted cauliflower, tangerine-brown butter hollandaise, capers, parsley, and farro verde.  The fish was cooked to perfection, still slightly pink on the inside and very moist.

Wagyu Zabuton - butterball potatoes, creamed cippolinis, smoked trumpet mushrooms, spinach, and mustard seed jus.  The beef lover of the group said this was one of the best made steak he's had...super tender and juicy, can taste the expensiveness that's for sure!

Braised Pork Cheeks - rye berries & spaetzle, kohlrabi puree, fuji apple, preserved orange, confit turnips.  The pork was so tender...very similar to braised short ribs.

Asian Pear Tartine - butter roasted shinko pears, chèvre ice cream,candied fennel, and viognier reduction.  The dessert was just so so...couldn't really taste that it was asian pear.  The nice thing was that it was on the house for my MILs birthday!
