My GF goes to these types of places all the time with her friends, but I prefer something more hearty and substantial. Say Mercy is fantastic for example, but didn't get a star.

Any recommendations?
These type of places you almost always need to order the multi-course tasting menu. Sure you'll get a baby carrot smeared with foam as an entire dish but you'll get 8 or 9 other dishes after that and you'll be full.

That being said the ones I've tried: Anna Lena, Burdock, and St. Lawrence are not like that. At least when I went.
