| - Hubbs and I came here for my birthday dinner last week-I had really been looking forward to it due to reviews and pics, and we kind of knew what to expect. The service was good-nothing stellar but not bad-average I guess, and the restaurant is pretty. But I'm only giving it 3 stars, and here's why...
The food was good. Or at least the presentation and menu options. To start with, i got the lobster fritters (yum, and eat them wrapped in the lettuce) and hubbs got the tomato soup with lobster grilled cheese. For main course i ordered the portherhouse, and hubbs got the Kansas strip. They were really good, but dayum!! Did we also get served salt licks with each course??? At first one of the waitresses kept filling up our waters every two or three sips, literally-and then we figured out why. Every single dish-EVERY SINGLE DISH-was insanely salty!!! Not just the apps, but the duck fat fries, the foccacia, the truffeled mac and cheese, even the steaks!! Don't get me wrong-the food was good. But dear lord-I think I sent my blood pressure through the roof with all the salt. It was crazy. Literally, every dish!!! Except my mint chocolate chip ice cream that i had for dessert.
I don't think it was amazing enough that we'd go back. Like I said, the food was good-but just too freaking salty for us to totally enjoy and savor it.
