| - After coming here for a solid 3 years, my last two experiences were so far out to left field (in regards to food & experience) that I can't leave a review on here any higher than a 2, I am really fair with my reviews and I don't want there to be a hype when really, there shouldn't be. This place use to be sooooooooooo good, but I don't know what happened?
I had gift certificates that were given to me due to my horrible experience in December of 2016, so, for a celebratory dinner evening out with another couple, we decided to come here and spend the whole certificate on dinner + then some. We figured maybe the last experience was due to just a busy night or something.
Off the bat, this night was better. We were seated right away (unlike last time where I waited almost 40'mins with a reso). We ordered apps, which came out quick. They were good. Warm and fresh.
For dinner I ordered a 10 oz steak. The most expensive thing on their menu for dinner. It came out ice cold. Not cold, ice cold. Other party ordered the chicken and ribs. Also cold. (Same experience as my last visit where my meatloaf was ice cold). They took it back, threw it back on the grill and brought it back. How can a kitchen send out a steak ice cold? Honestly? The women got pasta and salad, why take the steak off the grill and let it get cold? This is basic kitchen procedure. Manager came by, offered us onion strings (this place loves giving you onion strings when they mess up, I got them last time too!). $33 plate (which isn't expensive, but is the most expensive on the menu) I expect a nice, hot steak. Not onion strings!!!
Going onto dessert, we got deconstructed carrot cake. Had carrot purée, NO CREAM CHEESE?!, the smallest scoop of icecream I've ever seen in my life and left a taste in our mouthes comparable to a dry carrot muffin. This can be had for $7.
With our certificates we still spent $60 with no alcohol. Definitely not worth the money, before it was.. but I can't justify spending that much here anymore.. not that it's expensive, it's just not WORTH it IMHO.
2/5.
