| - We dined at Litchfield's recently. After living in the West Valley for a year, we had not experienced the restaurant, and have heard wonderful comments of the food and the experience. Unfortunately, that was not so. It was all about the kitchen and the tardiness of our entrees. My husband had the cucumber gazpacho and I had the tomato medallion salad: both were excellent. The evening went downhill slowly and escalated after our main entree had not arrived. after sitting in the restaurant for an hour and a half. We asked our waitress several times, of which she apologized and said the head chef was absent. At an hour and a half, my husband approached the manager of the whereabouts of our food, of which he pointed to my husbands dish. We waited five more minutes, got up and left. We left money for the glass of wine, ice tea, and our first courses.
I am in disbelief how a fine dining restaurant cannot keep the patron informed of the parings of the food, and the timing. Yes, at a fine restaurant, I am prepared to wait 20-30 minute in between courses, but not an hour plus. After residing at our table for 1.5 hours, we left, and will not return. My advice to future patrons, is ask if the kitchen is running on time, just as we must do in a physician's office: wierd.
I would have rated it no stars, however it own't allow me to post the review without indicating so.
