Well, great potential if you know the secret handshake.
First. The 2 of us asked for the table in the corner instead of the banquet bench seat crammed between tables. We were told no, it was reserved as a 4 top. Twenty minutes later a man came in alone and sat there. Ten minutes later his guest arrived. Two people at a 4 top. It was explained he was a regular. We watched the 4 top behind us sit empty for our entire meal. One hour and 45 min.
We had mussels for an appetizer. The description said it came with garlic bread. It was grilled bread. Not a huge deal, but not as described in the menu either. I ordered the nightly special eggplant parm stacked w chicken and prosciutto. My husband ordered the tilapia and asked for vegetables instead of pasta. It was an up charge. No big deal. I asked if the chicken would be delicious and not going to be dry. Ann our server said the chef was a perfectionist. And everyone was held accountable. The chicken was dry. Not the best experience in a "5 Star" restaurant, owned by the previous owner of 31 previously successful restaurants".
It was really hard being paying customers yet second class guests. We decided we'd try again and learn the secret handshake. Will update our review next time....
