Soooo this one is tough. Please let me start this review by saying when people walk into your restaurant the appropriate greeting is " Good evening and welcome to...." Not, "Can I help you" as though the garbage man came in through the dining area.. So that was strike one. This place is also not easy to find and about as far off the beaten path as you can get. Parking was also not great. So to continue on my initial contact I was asked if I had a reservation. Now that's not uncommon even at opening but after being there for over 30 minutes there were two tables. So please refer back to my comments on how you greet guests....Ok let's try and get past this...
So we ordered a vieux carre and a gimlet and they were both great cocktails. I looked over the menu and please let me clarify this is in no way a two dollar sign establishment. No worries there,I have been fine dining all week. My yellp record will support this. The menu was a bit limited. We ordered some olives and the lamb rilllette as a starter. I was encouraged to order everything at once and we requested some more time. Not well received. So after watching complimentary cocktails given out to the table next to me I am perplexed? I hope they are regulars. The server comes back to the table and asks what we would like. I say I am still waiting for the lamb rilllette... I watch her write it down and go and place the order.. why are they just placing the order?? To make it worse she points out our table to the ball hat wearing kitchen staff in shorts and the exchange does not look pleasant. Ok now I'm done. If you are.a local I guess you can try this. I'm a Native son from out of town. The rilllette was good looking and the cocktails were good but not enough to warrant a trip up this hill to have horrible service. Sorry Yelp fans keep looking
