  • Beautiful setting and atmosphere. Have dined here multiple times over 20 years, and twice on this visit. Waitstaff are fine, if not as sharp as in past years. In particular the food has really  taken a bad turn in the last 5 years. Very narrow choices (all meat, little seafood, no vegetarian), over-produced and fussy combinations and presentations--it's no longer about good food, but obscure products put together in "inventive" ways that aren't always pleasant or necessary. Not enough of any one of the half-dozen items on a plate to get any sense of it by itself---muddys the flavors. No salads (kale is not a salad by itself) and other appetizers are way too complicated. The house "fry bread" was soaking in oil both nights, and the blue cork cakes and the cornbread included on two different entres was really bad--soggy with oil on one, over-ingrediented on the other. Where is the pure taste of the food itself? Wine list (no sommelier now) has declined and prices are way out of line with reasonable restaurant markup. Even the souffles have been halved in size so romantic sharing is now an exercise in spoon combat.  It's an expensive meal for what you actually get, and about all you get... is that lovely interior. Time for a change in course. Stacked food and over complicated preparations with too many ingredients is a fad that went out a decade ago. Time for Maybury to revisit the cuisine and imagine better food, real food We'll be back to stay, we always do, but I'm not sure we'll be back to dine. Sad, because this was such a treat over the years.
