| - Probably one of the worst dining experiences ever! We, a party of four, came for AZ Restaurant week. We waited about 30 minutes before our order was taken, much too long. We were brought a relish tray that was really meant for 2 but there were 4 of us. Odd. 2 of us opted for the PrixFix menu. The brie in puff pastry was really very undercooked, and appeared the kitchen was rushed just to get it out, a revelation of what was to come. The $5.95 upcharge for caesar salad and oddly placed anchovies on the edge of the plate was just weird. Given the so called classy-ness of this place, they should have been mixed in with the dressing. The pork chop was ordered medium and specifically so to the waitress that it not be dry. It came out very dry, and nearly un-edible. Prime rib was very thick and exceptionally dry. Both the pork chop and prime rib had to be taken off the bill. Our waitress was not engaged for most of the dinner, and was extremely busy for service...way too busy to attend to her diners. Management was apologetic enough to comp the meals. This place is very drab, dark and absolutely stuck in the era in which it was opened. The same red velvet wallpaper is on the walls, the clientele considerably older, as if the only patrons are the very ones who have kept the place going since the beginning. Once these patrons are dead this place will be too. Highly overrated, highly overpraised, way too noisy and highly overpriced. This is NOT a place for people who expect and enjoy a very high standard of food quality, service and ambience. I pity the diner who does not heed this review...eat at your own risk but don't say i didn't warn you.
