What can I say? La Castile is still phenomenal. I've been going there ever since I was a little smurf but I haven't been in a decade. I took wifey and Mumsy in Law on a whim and I was a little nervous since it was their first time there and I'd been touting it for ages.
Well everything was perfect, as I remember it. The food was fantastic, (highlights were the steak, the full-sour pickles and the amazing Caesar salad). We found the service to be impeccable. Very attentive and NEVER overbearing or snooty as described in others' reviews.
If anything, go for the ambiance. It's really hard to beat the old-school, majestic feel of this place. Huge chandeliers, incredible amounts of wood and multi-levels truly do make you feel as though you're in a castle.
Two slight, slight reasons that I didn't give it 5 stars?
The lobster tail was slightly overcooked and chewy (perhaps because it was so big?) and the place is a geriatric magnet. At least, for that reason, it's quiet!
