| - I really don't understand how this place has so many rave reviews.
The service was terrible. My husband and I got a table quickly, then were left sitting there for 10 minutes. The table next to us that arrived after we did were actually served before us. A waitress finally came and took our drink order and food order at the same time. This is a huge pet peeve of mine. Drink orders should be taken first, and shortly after the table has been seated. Our drinks also took a while to arrive. By this time I believe we had be served by 3 different people. I ordered the lobster Caesar and it was actually pretty good, so at least they have that going for them. I found the menu a little confusing. It looked like a hand written photocopy, which is fine I get it, you're trying to be hipster. But it would be nice to have descriptions of a few of the items because the name of the dish didn't explain what it was. I would have asked a waitress about a few items, but they seemed too busy trying to avoid our table.
We both got the lobster roll, which was tiny. We were told it came with chips (again, didn't say this on the menu) and figured chips ment fries. Nope, actually potato chips that are made in house. Which would be nice if they weren't burnt to a crips, slightly stale and covered in waaay too much salt.
I guess the theme of the night was "take too long to do anything", because it also took awhile to get the bill (that was brought to us by yet another different waitress) and also took a while to flag someone down and pay by debt (again, a totally different waitress)
Overall, food wasn't worth the price so I would not return.
TL; DR: place has awesome reviews and sounds great, but service is slow. Expensive for mediocre food. They need to get their shit together and stop trying to be so hipster.
