| - When you walk in, there is an animated version of Chef Ramsey. Cheesy but cute. Hostesses were fine. Not "friendly" but not rude either. They we're just fine. We were a party of 3 and were seated promptly at our reservation time, which was nice. The hostess let us know who should be serving is, but I forgot her name! The server was sweet and friendly. The room was sparse. It's a huge space. I think if they fit the proper amount of tables in, the kitchen probably couldn't handle it. Most appetizers are $20+/-. It is very overpriced for the mediocre food that was served. We ordered the Scampi Prawn Flambe ($24)and Lobster Risotto($24) for appetizers. They had interesting flavors, but the risotto portion was small and undercooked. The prawns had a beautiful presentation, but again, nothing special for the price. For dinner we ordered braised short rib($34), brick pressed chicken($29), and brussel sprouts ($9). The short rib was not bad. Not the best I've ever had but not the worst. When the server came by to ask how everything was we said it was fine. But the chicken however was so dry!!! I didn't notice until I saw my mother sawing at it to cut it. I asked and she said it was really dry. I looked around for the server again, but didn't see her when she came back, we told the server about the chicken and asked for more sauce. She brought some au jus. The brussel sprouts we're flavorless except for the pickled peppers that were mixed in. I was my mom's bday. We ordered the cheesecake. It was a long, short, narrow, sliver. It was super dense, but the flavor was ok. You could tell it had been sitting in a cooler with the toppings already on it. It had a candle, but no "Happy Birthday" written on it. The best thing about the dinner was that the back server or busser guy NEVER let our waters or tea be empty! It was actually pretty impressive! I will not be returning.
