| - We came here for Restaurant Week, and I was quite disappointed.
The first thing I noticed was that they definitely do NOT enforce the dress code. One of the diners at a table near ours was wearing trainers and a hoodie, and I noticed another table being seated that included a girl in a short skirt and midriff shirt.
As for the atmosphere, while I can appreciate the classy decor, I'm not a fan of the "dining hall" idea. It's just one big long room with bright lights and no interesting layout. Boring.
The biggest disappointment was the food. Halfway through dinner service on the first night of Restaurant Week, and they had run out of the Beef Tenderloin, and had to substitute Mongolian Beef. I am by no means a food snob, but the quality of this dish was no better than something you'd find at Panda Express. I felt gypped.
For appetizers we ordered the duck rolls and lobster dumplings. Not bad, but not fantastic either.
I will say though, that the staff was outstanding. Very helpful and polite.
Overall, for about $50/person, I'd expect a classier establishment with higher quality food, and I'd expect to have nicer things to say about it.
