| - Me and a friend wanted to try the new Cornerstone Steakhouse at the Gold Coast. We had an early reservation at 5 pm. Our waiter, Cliff, came to our table and asked if we wanted something to drink. He was not friendly at all. We asked for water, ice tea, and a glass of wine. The water came in a glass with no ice and was at room temperature. The ice tea came with 4 small ice cubes. We had to ask for a refill on the ice tea, and asked for ice. Abigail, the "back server" brought our food out and was so personable. She should have been the food server as she had such a "bubbly" personality. The Onion Soup was very good. I had the Scampi. Four shrimp served with noodles was okay for 26.00. My friend had the Salmon. After eating, we sat with empty plates waiting to be picked up. It's not like our server was busy. I am not a fan of the "front" and "back" waiter concept. I like a food server that takes my order, then delivers it. Three different people brought food out. The baked potato was huge. Enough for 3 people. The waiter never suggested splitting one. But he did not talk much at all and maybe was having a bad night. He was not attentive at all. The atmosphere was very nice, however, I would not go back again. Dinner for two was 120.00 for soup, salad, entree and baked potato, a glass of wine and an iced tea. To me, service has to be good to pay that much for two people.
