| - I'm kind of surprised right now. So if you read my other reviews you pretty much know that it's hard to get 5 stars, but pretty easy to get 4 stars. If you get 3 stars then there must've been something wrong.
First of all I was really into going to eat here. I thought it was really nice on the inside. I had a very positive attitude without super high expectations. That's the ideal right?
Well, I was here for my wife's birthday, and my sister in laws belated birthday dinner. I ordered bone in rib eye. My wife ordered bone in filet w lobster tail on the side and my sister in law ordered lamb chops. I ordered mine medium rare. It came out just under well done. My wife ordered hers medium and it came out well done. My sister ordered hers medium and it came out rare. The manager happened to come by and ask how everything was. I really want to avoid complaining at a restaurant, but my wife said his is too done, and my sisters is not done enough. I said hey it's alright we can handle it, but the manager said oh no please let me take care of this. Ok I said no problem thank you so much. So they started another steak for me and started to cook my sisters more. Ok so they brought mine back. It looked right on the outside...nice looking. Alright so it was practically raw. My sisters comes back and it looks like they threw it in the microwave. All the while it's my wife's birthday and her steak is brown. Wtf.
So I cook a little around the house. Some say my steak is better than most restaurants. I usually say it's ok. Well, in this case I can say I can get the temp on the money 90% of the time without timing it. I really was kind of shocked. I won't go into the meat anymore because it really was a train wreck.
The appetizers were good. Dungeness crab cocktail, and oysters on a half shell. Drinks were great. We all enjoyed. But the dinner was really one of the worst I have ever had. I am really bummed about that. I can't really rate it a 1 star because the manager was good, appetizers were good, drinks were good, but the dinner...well, never again. I almost want to bump up the 2 stars that I have given on other reviews because this review is really 1 and a half.
