After patronizing this restaurant for 10 years with the utmost pleasure, last night convinced me not to go back. It appears that the staff have changed, especially the manager, and the service is definitely no longer what it used to be. It has also become so noisy that It is hard to hear what one's dinner guest is saying. We had two glasses of wine, one of which evidenced a great deal of sediment at the bottom of the glass, which was noticed when the glass was 3/4s consumed. The manager completely refused to take that glass off the bill, and only offered to charge half the price for it! As any one familiar with wine knows, serving a glass of wine like that is totally unacceptable. However, sad to say, the manager was happy to sacrifice our patronage in the future for the cost of a glass of wine! How foolish can one be! I hope the owner notices this. CR
