Ixia gave me the perfect Friday night experience - more than a meal, dinner here was an experience. We started out in the lounge, a high-concept design-heavy area with an eclectic mix of chairs, and with a bottle of Sauvignon Blanc from Kunde, a winery I visited last month in Sonoma. From there, we (and the bottle of wine) took to a corner table. We ordered four "small plates" to share, tapas style: duck proscuitto; grilled octopus with ricotta gnocci, olives, and capers; grilled peaches with bleu cheese; oyster and smoked gouda ravioli in a pea sauce. The duck proscuitto was a bit rich, and perhaps not prepared best, but overall, the meal was delicious. I'd return to Ixia in a heart beat.
