| - Tourist trap, and anti-customer to boot. How disappointing to find a restaurant like this in an area so heavily trafficked by locals and tourists.
Yes, it has a great location, but the food is average and the service even worse. The day we were there, we asked for something on the patio. The hostess said they didn't have anything available. We said we would gladly wait, and the hostess looked confused/irritated and said they don't do that. Um. Don't do what? Would they have rather we lurked around the patio like it was a food court until someone got up? Who was it really hurting to have us wait at the front or at the bar for a few minutes? The dining areas inside were largely empty.
We left, but not two minutes later, saw a table for four open up on the patio and went back. But we all wished we hadn't. Once seated, we learned there was an $8 minimum food order per person, so we couldn't just sit back and have a pint as planned. Really??? I'm ashamed to say that we broke down and each ordered something small rather than leave. And of COURSE the food was mediocre at best. Of course it was.
You know, I hate to say this, but you couldn't pay me to go back. Reminds me of a lot of the restaurants at Fisherman's Wharf in San Francisco. That's not a good thing.
