Dinner with Principal in Consulting, what to wear?

Hi, I was recently hired to a consulting firm. In my interview, the partner/principal in the practice was not present, so after my unofficial offer was given from my principal/partner, he invited me out for dinner to some fancy restraunt. Question is what should I wear? The whole suit with tie? I am thinking suit but no tie.

What would be appropriate?
