| - We were very excited when we heard from some friends that Cedar Creek was opening up just down the street from our house. This space at La Place has been filled with mediocre restaurants for the longest time (Melange, anyone?), and this sounded like a restaurant that would be good for the area.
We drove past one day and saw that the restaurant appeared to be open for business. So, we decided to see if this place was what we had imagined it would be, and tried to go there that evening for dinner.
Once we walked in the door that evening, we were very arrogantly greeted by a manager. The restaurant was packed, so I asked how long of a wait there would be for three people (my husband, my son, and myself). He then asked if we had an invitation. I told him I didn't know what he was talking about, and that the restaurant appeared to be open to the public from the outside. He said that the restaurant was open that evening to "friends and family" only.
Please note... there was no signage stating they were closed to the public on the doors or windows outside of the restaurant, and when we had called earlier in the day (twice, I might add) to see what the attire was and if they accepted reservations, there was no mention of that evening being "invitation only".
The manager was extremely short with us and did not even bother to tell us when the restaurant would be open to the public. More than a little disappointed, we left. Not exactly a great first impression.
A few nights later, we tried again. The decor of the restaurant is gorgeous. Very classy, indeed. However, seating arrangement and the layout of the booths is a bit awkward.
Our server was very good, but the quality of the food was lacking. My husband ordered the steak tacos and didn't even bother to finish them, as he said they had no taste to them. My son ordered a burger with fries and found it to just be average. I ordered a salad, which was pretty good. My husband and son both ordered the french onion soup, which they enjoyed.
We had mentioned to a different manager on our second visit the negative experience we had had the first time. He apologized for the incident and graciously paid for our dinner, which we appreciated.
While the service provided by the wait staff was very good, some of the management staff need an ego-check.
Complimentary valet parking is available.
Overall, we won't be returning anytime soon. There are so many better options in this area that you can't even justify coming here... simple as that.
