| - I went to Posh to check out the hype, to see if it's really worth all the accolades. It fell short. By short, I mean we left after the fifth course because the food was bleh. If I had my way we would have left after the third. Especially since they have an unbelievable wait between courses. We were there for three hours!
The amuse was interesting, combining peanut butter, tomatoes, avocado, cocoa and chili powder. The chili powder was undistinguishable.
My melon salad was the best thing I had, but the honey dew was not ripe. It tasted like biting into the rind of a watermelon.
The mahi mahi was dry, rubbery, and over seasoned. The mushrooms and broth were the saving grace of the dish.
I threw up after the foie gras (and I really love foie gras). The sorbet was ok but lacked seasoning. The honey comb and fritter type thing was overly sweet and the seared was like biting into canned Vienna sausage. Even the memory makes me gag.
They served me a pork cheek after and it was like biting into gelatinized fat. And to top it off was extremely salty.
My partner wasn't as dissatisfied as I was. He ate the portions I didn't finish. But he did say we could have had a better dinner at outback, which is one of our least favorite places.
The service was good but slow. Especially since the server said he controlled the pacing of our meal. To be fair there was only one other server, a bartender and four dudes in the kitchen.
I really wanted to give one star, but the decor and set up was great and our server was super knowledgeable and helpful, that is when he was able to serve us.
