408.0. "R Place - Waltham???" by MSBCS::SAMOJLA () Fri Feb 21 1997 19:40

    I am trying to locate a restraunt in Waltham that is suppose to be
    great but of course I don't have the name correct - I thought it was
    something like "R Place".  Any one know where it is or any comments???
    
    Thanks

    Yes, it is R Place. It is located in the previous location of Il
    Capriccio. The address is: 53 Prospect Street (between Vermont and
    Charles Streets) in Waltham.
    
    I recommend it although it has been a while since I was there.

    Answering my own question...
    
    R Place off Main
                   53 Prospect Street, Waltham 
                   617-893-8809 
                   Chef Russell Thiel is developing a loyal following for
    		   his funky New
                   American dishes served in the former site of
    		   ever-popular Il
                   Capriccio. Recent menu highlights included Maine crab
    		   chowder with
                   sweet corn and red pepper, hickory-smoked
    		   chicken-and-bee
                   quesadillas with avocado salsa, and almond-crusted
    		   salmon with
                   citrus-ginger couscous and a Pinot Noir-basil sauce. 
    
    I think they meant "chicken-and-bee_F_" above... :-)
