| - We should have tried the pizza place next door. I was very disappointed with the entire meal and our "service" at the steakhouse.
1) ordered a drink that on the menu came listed as grapefruit vodka, ginger beer, lime, soda. It came with half the glass full of previously frozen strawberries. It was decent, but I wasn't in the mood for sweet. When I asked the server about it he just shrugged it off and said it was correct.
2) The free herb bread is amazing.
3) The expensive steak flatbread is not. Mushrooms were not on the menu and it was 3/4 mushroom for the topping. I would not have ordered it if I saw mushrooms. When I asked the server about it he just shrugged it off and said next time order it without mushrooms.
4) the Caesar salad was drenched in dressing that tasted like mayonnaise. Croutons were massive and soggy.
5) Had a hard time deciding just what steak so we have the steak dinner for 2 a try, which was difficult considering the cost. Petite filet, baseball cut, and N.Y. strip, all ordered medium rare, all received at 3 different temperatures. All medium well to well done, except half of the filet which was medium rare but the other half was well done and dry. When we told the server he just shrugged it off and walked away. No offer to get it right, just walked away.
6) We ordered our three sides to be garlic mashed potatoes, onion rings, and Brussels sprouts. We received zucchini instead of Brussels. When we asked the server about it he asked if we were sure then went to the kitchen. He brought back Brussels sprouts and said it was a miscommunication so the Brussels sprouts were on the house. Mashed potatoes were flavorless and had a texture similar to paste. We each took two bites and left the rest alone. The onion rings were nothing special, decent with ranch. The zucchini and Brussels sprouts were nothing short of amazing. Very well cooked and delicious. When we told our server about the potatoes he just asked if we wanted to take anything home with us, no acknowledgement of the pasty potatoes.
7) When we received our bill the pricing was wrong, higher by a dollar or two then what is published on the menu but at that point we just wanted to leave so we left our money and walked out.
Long story short, save your money, eat at any of the other fabulous restaurants in OTG. You could eat at any one of them 3 times for the price of this one lousy experience.
