| - Stay away from this place!
For our 3 year anniversary, bf and I decided to try this place based on excellent reviews seen on Yelp and heard from some other people. I was also excited to try it as when I called for reservations, I asked to be seated in a place where we could sit perpendicular. Hostess promised that we could sit at a 4-seater, and was really warm and inviting on the phone.
So we go there today. Hostess shows us to a small 2-seater table squished between two other diner pairs. Ummmmm... where's the 4-seater that they promised?!? Hostess says all the tables were booked and that information was not written down in their books. So we sit on a wobbly 2-person table for the entire night, while all around us, 4-person tables were completely empty. A group of 3 walked in, and didn't have reservations, and got to sit at another 4-person table. Sure, I understand that if they're really busy, we should sit at the 2-person. But, 1) they promised, and 2) they were NOT BUSY.
Server was new. Asked him about the menu. Most of his response was: I have not tasted this. Unacceptable.
Food - subpar. Ordered chickpea fries and mushroom beignets. Did not care for the goat cheese. Just average for entrees - nothing special. The kicker is that when we had 2 chickpea fries left, a server comes up to us, and says "Your entrees are done. Do you want me to pack this up for you?" Why the rush??? I have never ever had anyone interrupt me in the middle of appetizers to ask me if I'm done, and if I wanted them boxed. If they had been paying attention, they would have seen that we were still eating, and never once put our forks down for like more than 30 secs.
Ordered roasted chicken and open face bbq sandwich. Chicken was very very bland. Came with red sauce and gnocchi. Gnocchi was definitely nowhere near as good as the ones from Chinato's. These were very doughy and tough. Seemed like a mishmash of different flavors, none of which complimented each other. Tasted like something I could make from a can. Open face bbq sandwich - bread was burnt. If this was on Hell's Kitchen, Gordon Ramsey would have slammed his fist down, and had a hissy fit. Way too mustardy and acidic, even for me, and I love mustard and vinegar. The red cabbage on top did help in reducing the acid. Salt and pepper chips were good, but tasted like warm bagged potato chips.
Drinks - hard cider was sour. Bf did not like his pale ale.
Skipped dessert. Could not handle anymore.
Also, before I finished the last 3 chips on the plate, another server starts taking the plates away without even asking. He just comes up and says, "let me take these out of your way." My hand was still on the plate reaching for a chip as he swoops in to grab the plate away.
For $67 after tax, I expected a lot better. Will not be coming here again. Poor food. Poor service.
