| - This is a tale of two reviews. The first review is of the service which was outstanding. 5 stars easily. The waitress and manager were awesome, the food, however, was not.
This isn't to say it was all bad, because it wasn't. We initially ordered the tasting menu, having tried outstanding tasting menus at hoogan at beaufort and hvor, we were prepared to be surprised. The first course was the charcuterie which was ok. It was a tad salty and one note for my taste but some may appreciate it. The next dish was a fancy tuna salad that was, in a word, tasteless. It was one note, my dinner companion was less then impressed. The next course was the deal breaker, being a scallop course, again without any flavour or taste. We normally wouldn't say anything but decided to let the waitress know. The manager came by and did all that he could to make us happy, which we appreciated. We "restarted" and allowed us to pick from the shareable list to end the meal. The grilled octopus was ok. The duck ravioli was very yummy (best dish) and the final savoury course was the seared eye of round, which was a nicely cooked piece of meat and the pure reminded me of the one I had at park. We ended on the fondant cake which was yummy.
I'm undecided about a return but I wouldn't do the tasting menu but the service was outstanding.
