Horrible Birthday Dinner!
Went to Remy's last night with a about a group of 15 people. At first glance the restaurant and patio looked great from outside. When you go in you see a horribly outdated decor. Old chairs with paint chips, green velvet padded walls caked in dust and grungy carpet. The bathrooms were actually worse and were extremely dark, grimy, and smelled like urine. This place in in need of a major first floor overhaul.
Now to the service, our waitress had over 6 large tables to server (some of the groups being 15 and over - which was not fair to her), so getting repetitive visits to our table were far few and between. Drinks were ok, but unfortunately, food was way below par. All our pasta dishes and appetizers were extremely bland. We had to put salt and Parmesan to bring out some sort of flavour. Some of the more expensive dishes we ordered like the steak and veal parmigiana were also lackluster.
The gentleman bringing our the food to us was rude and did not seem like he even wanted to be there.
Overall, I would not expect this grade of food and service from a hip Yorkville restaurant that is established.
I would not recommend this place unfortunately to any of my friends or family, unless you're going to the patio for drinks only.
