Must've caught Eddie and co on a bad night. Aloof service made more so by our order of mostly small plates...even tho the menu is ideal for such a meal (and it ups the tab). All four plates arrived at the same time, too big for the table! Just WRONG and so uninspired. As we emptied and consolidated plates to make room, the empties stacked up and festered for a long time until I took out my camera. Suddenly a hand appeared in frame and removed them.
Specifics:
The much lauded shrimp/potato/horseradish app is not so great. Way too much crust around a smallish shrimp. Even when I dissected one, it was hard to discern the flavors and textures.
The Mac n cheese is excellent. Large noodles and great cheese taste and texture... As good as there is in the purist category.
Cobb salad, large but unremarkable.
Seafood wontons, okay but unable to tell you what seafood we were eating...pasty that way.
Ahi app (poke style), good fish, decent seasoning.
No reason to return. But if ur in the nabe, check it out. Maybe they'll be having a better night
