Little did I know this place was going to cost me $85 bucks. I was going in prepared to pay $65-70 but $85 was a bit too much and definitely not worth it hence the star reduction.
Reasons for star reduction:
1) oysters looked disgusting. yes it was nice that it was offered and i would have been eat ting them up. but these look like they'd make you sick and they didn't look fresh at all
2) lobster wasn't coming out fast enough. there was always a 10-15 minute wait to get to the lobster! which wastes your precious eating time
3) the dining room is separated. they use two restaurants to house the sterling brunch. the steakhouse and another restaurant. we got sat in the other one, i think it was Italian. so we had to walk pretty far to get to the food. i was quite disappointed with this
4) had to wait 15 minutes with a reservation when the waiting list without one was 15-20 minutes. whats the point of the reservation? and we still got a crappy seat
Why its at least 4 stars
1) the lobster, when you actually got it it was fab.
2) champagne was unlimited and Delicious. a bit slow on the refills but still nice to have. and when he did refill he only gave me half a glass even when i asked for a full glass. i thought that was rude.
3) they had chocolate cover strawberries as dessert- MY FAV!
4) lamb was good and not super gamey
5) shrimp cocktail
6) caviar by request
overall. i feel like they didn't refill the foods fast enough. there was always a wait for something and the setup of the food made it so that the line for the lobster [at the end] block all the other foods [crab legs prime rib]
super excited to go and thoroughly disappointed. even the desserts weren't refilled that quick.
not worth $85 bucks
I'd like to go again and give this place a second chance if it went back to $65
