This place seems to have disruptive power politics going on.
The hostess set a bad tone. She let me know that the place was still in happy hour, informed me that the bar and high top tables where available, but didn't really take control of the situation. I expected her to gesture for me and read that this was probably my first time there and I was a bit disoriented. I had to search for the high tables. (Pro tip: they are behind the massive bar that's flanked by a partition wall.) Unfortunately, when the rest of my party arrived they got the same standoffish greeting.
Our waitress was better but still didn't impress us. When she sat us down she didn't bring menus, then she brought us the wrong happy hour menus, and I had to ask to be moved to a normal table. She said she had to ask front desk if my group of four could be moved. I have two questions: 1. How does this place think one of their high tables is appropriate for four at dinner? 2. Why can't our server make the decision on what's best for her patrons?
The food? Surprisingly good but the portions where small. $16 for a cylindrical ice cream scoop of flavored rice with an egg on top? Pathetic.
If you're going to take a lady or gentleman out do not pick this spot. Drive to Old Town and get yourself some decent service and priced food.
The bar tenders where great though!
