| - Had a reservation on Sunday at 5:30, about 2 hours before our show at Smith Center. We were greeted warmly and seated immediately. Our server came over immediately, welcomed us, and explained the menu. A few more people walked in, and service started to SLOOOOW. I noticed they were grossly understaffed. Literally only one or two people, handling 20 tables. Took about 15 minutes to get water and then we had an opportunity to order drinks, but I requested a sample of their labeled Chardonnay, took another 15 minutes, all and all it took about 45 minutes to just get my drink and we had not even ordered yet, we order It took about another 35 minutes to get our food. Meanwhile we are a party of two and the party of four that were seated after us, had completed their entire meal (drinks, apps, and meals) before we even got our dinner..kind of frustrating. When we mentioned to our server we had a show to make, he scolded us that we should have told him that EARLIER. Well we thought 2 hours was plenty of time to just have a drink and dinner (no apps), but we were starting to get pressed for time.
The chimichurri steak was excellent, the Duck Confit was too salty, and I like salt and it was too salty for me.
Overall it would have been an OK dinner, had the server not scold us ;(
