| - Not nearly as bad as the reviews I read made it sound. I was sort of dreading this meal, and was pleasantly surprised that it wasn't awful.
For what it was, the food was good. I found it rather uninspired, though -- and that's the worst I can say about the food. The wedding soup was good -- not too salty, and not under flavored -- and I loved the vegetable boat. I'm a brined vegetable sort of girl, so this was right up my alley, and similar to what I make some nights when I want food but don't want to cook. Chicken a la Angel was good -- not awful, not awesome, but solidly good. Could have used a little more crab, though. Dessert was excellent -- loved the baklava, and loved the pineapple.
Drinks were very strong. It's rare that I can nurse a gin and tonic for a meal, and this drink definitely forced that.
I think what you pay for here is definitely the view. The servers were brusque -- not nice, but not rude. Just not... well, not my style. (My parents thought they were nice, though, so it could be a generational thing.) I feel that if I'm paying that much money for a meal, that I should be catered to and fawned over, and I didn't get that feeling at Tin Angel. View was amazing, though.
