| - This used to be my favorite go to restaurant for a nice evening out with my husband. The menu has gone tremendously down hill over these last two visits in the last couple of months.
Now you get a standard boring bread basket, instead of the different yummy bread selections they used to have. We were told it is because they were wasting so much...here's an idea, plan better with the old bread selection instead of offering up a boring bread.
A couple months ago, the bread selection had dwindled, last night we were surprised at how the menu dwindled.
The selections were awful. They no longer have spicy salads, different sauce selections with a fish menu. So we tried to embrace it by ordering something new. I ordered the fish tacos. They were awful. Their "southwestern" cooking style was some sort of pickling of peppers. Not a good combination! I ate one, just trying to identify the taste. My husband had one and couldn't even stomach half of it! They also were wrapped in two corn tortillas for each taco...overkill! We couldn't even eat the third taco.
My husband ordered some sort of ranch style salad with 3 shrimp that were cold, being served in some tiny little skillet. Think the skillet was for looks since the shrimp was cold. He said there wasn't any flavor to the salad. It was very boring.
Our young daughter ordered off the child's menu and had a steak, mashed potatoes, broccoli & a tiny cup of fruit. Everything she had tasted pretty good, except the steak was incredibly salty. Way too much salt for a kid and for me. My husband thought the steak was ok.
I am also going to mention the overall ambiance. It was so incredibly loud! Not sure what happened when they remodeled, but we used to be able to talk across the table and hear one another. Now it is so noisy, you have to speak loudly just to have a conversation and good luck hearing what your companion has to say.
Something on the menus stunk really badly too! Not sure if it was the wood they used or some sort of lacquer, but it was awful.
The wood in the restaurant also smelled of stain or lacquer. Not sure what product they used, but the place needs to be aired out for a couple months so it doesn't stink so much.
The only change this restaurant did that deserved a star was change their prices. They are lower. My meal used to run $28 just for my entree. Since it is no longer available, I tried nasty fish tacos for $15. So it appears they have reduced their prices. It is a good thing we didn't pay more than we did, because their menu change needs a lot of work!!!
Our waitress was friendly, so the staff is still worth their weight in gold!
I am really sad to say that my once favorite restaurant will no longer be on our dining radar. Now to find a new place to eat some really good food!
