Troquet- Still a Standby but…

Troquet on Boylston St in Boston is a favorite of mine.  They have really good food, the portions are appropriate, you can do all that wine pairing and tasting.  I made a reservation there in order to have dinner with college friends I haven’t seen in so many years I won’t admit to it. When I made the reservation I asked to be seated some where quiet- thank god.  We were seated near the stairs, almost not in the dining room which was loud- really loud.  I think that they should consider perhaps some soft surfaces… fabric on the ceiling or walls?  A cone of silence available?  At any rate, our table was fine Dinner was really nice, Striped Bass is in season.  The service was fine ,but we had a cheese course and I have two complaints.  Number 1, they usually have a selection of some local New England cheeses on the trolley and there were none; number 2, more severe, we were served the last piece of a cheese on the board that clearly had been sitting like that for some time… it was dry.  So  a bit more attention to the cheeses please, but it continues to be a standby.
