Am I the only one who found Bistro Menil largely unremarkable?

I've heard several people lamenting its planned shuttering later this month:

I never had a particularly bad experience at Bistro Menil. And the location and room were both nice. The food was certainly reliable, but it was nothing special. I often left feeling that, if I had wanted to, I likely could have produced a similar meal in my home kitchen. And then there was the issue of the restaurant serving only wine.

I'm not happy to see a long-time spot close, but perhaps we'll get something a little more innovative in its place?
