| - The things that were great about our meal were truly great. But there were a number of things that missed the mark.
It was graduation weekend, and the kitchen and wait staff seemed overwhelmed. Everything - drinks, appetizers, taking orders -- took longer than expect.
Our entrees were absolutely delicious. Between us, we ordered the short ribs, the lamb chops and a seafood pasta. The eggplant involitini as an appetizer was wonderful, too. A few dishes missed the mark. We ordered the mussels because of rave reviews on yelp. Our were tough and overcooked. Our Bananas Foster was sort of odd, with a chewy piece of bread in the middle, which required cutting, but no knife was provided.
I was very surprised that forks and knives were never changed out throughout the entire meal. With shared plates and multiples courses, one fork from appetizer through dessert seemed odd and unpolished.
The highlights we high enough that we will surely be back. Hopefully it will be a less crazy weekend, there will be fewer kinks, and I'll just ask for a new fork if I want one!
