| - We went here last week excited to try a new restaurant in the neighborhood, especially as we are foodies and this place just opened. We showed up surprised we had to wait, but expected we could grab a drink while waiting. Unfortunately, the wait was 50 minutes and the bar was crowded, leaving no room to grab a quick drink. After consideration, we decided to try and wait it out. We eventually grabbed opening seats at the bar and received good service and the best dirty martini I've had in a while. Unfortunately, that was the best service and order of the night. Upon seating, we were not offered water or specials. Our waitress, who was clearly not well versed with the menu, took our order, but did not ask for common sides/sauces shown on menu; however other servers did. When the food arrived, we were disappointed. The fillet that was ordered (6 oz) was large yet unsatisfactory, especially as the sauce that was requested was absent. The pork was also unsatisfactory, it was dry, bland, and left much to be desired. The couscous side, was highly welcomed, although it was the same color as the plate, the very large plate with much room left to fit other veggies or food. A smaller plate could have been utilized more efficiently. Presentation was lacking. Overall, we were disappointed. We will not be back, unless it's just for the martini.
