Something to be said about the food. I dined here this evening 12/19 and was wondering what all the hype was about. The food is what the hype was about. I enjoyed with the table the buratta, prosciutto, and octopus apps. All fantastic those were. Entrees included mustard crusted rack of lamb and lobster ravioli which were both to die for. Dessert I had the molten lava cake which was good as expected.
Now for what was to be desired was the service. We were seated promptly and the wait staff at first was very helpful in letting us know about the restaurant. We had our reservation for 5:00pm and failed to realize on how much the service standard declined when they were busy. The entire dinner took almost 2 1/2 hours as a result. We placed out order apps took around 20-25 min then entrees around 45-50 min. I actually caught myself checking the time on how long it had been since we had placed our order. The only other thing I noticed is that when the place got busy our waiter seemed to disappear. I waited for 20 min for my drink to be refilled and then the last time I asked for a refill they didn't even bring it back by the time I left 20 min later.
Point: Food is good as I expected it to be. The kitchen is doing it right. The FOH however has left little to be desired. This is the reason for the 3 stars.
