| - Simply put, this placed sucked. My husband took me there for my birthday and we were really looking forward to it but came away SO disappointed. First, in a restaurant full of available tables (it was nearly empty), they sat us next to the loudest table in the world. When I politely asked if they could move us, they happily accommodated us - and moved us one table over from the loudest table in the world. They knew it was my birthday and said nothing; we sat for 15 minutes, put in drink orders and an appetizer order (we had studied the menu at home and knew what we wanted because we were starving), and we STILL had no menues, and probably would have sat there all night waiting if I hadn't finally asked for some. We inquired about the 5-course tasting menu, and our waiter admitted he knew nothing about it and said he had to go ask the chef. No problem, we understand - what we DIDN'T understand was why, when he returned, he still couldn't tell us a stinkin' thing about the 5-course tasting menu - he literally named only 3 or 4 of the ingredients for a few of the courses, and then said "Uh, I can't tell you anything more, I know know how anything is prepared." When I inquired what the "salad" was comprised of, he he said "some lettuce." Gee, thanks for the detail. Finally, the food was really salty! I'd seriously give this place 0 stars if that were possible. My husband chose this place based on the mostly positive reviews but I guess we are the exception.
I will, however, say that the view was amazing and it's not as though the people were't kind because they were. But for the $, we'd have been better off just going to Mastro's.
