Recently came here for summerlicious ($25) last Friday night with some friends and when we arrived, the place was pretty much empty.. which is pretty alarming when you first try out a new restaurant.
Like some other restaurants in the area, this place does not offer a drinks menu. But you would have thought that you can just name a drink and they will make it for you. Wrong. The drink options are very limited and I ended up closing a local beer which was about $8.
The food was a hit and miss. Overall the portions were pretty generous, but the quality of food was very inconsistent, especially dessert. The Grilled cheese bites (appetizer) was the best of the 3 courses. The Pan fried crab cakes (main) was a bit burnt and covered with too much bread crumbs. The Coffee caramel creme brulee (dessert) was probably the worst, it pretty much just came out from the fridge- the entire dessert was still cold.
In terms of ambience, the interior could use some work. The place is very dull and dim. The patio would have been a big selling point, if they had set up the space for outdoor seating instead of it just being a smokers pit.
Service was not the best either. Our server who was also the bar tender could use a bit of a cheer me up. He lacked enthusiasm and a smile which I personally think is key for the food service industry. Who wants to see a Debby Downer when you are out to have a good time?
