| - They sure were BOLD to try to pass off our short experience as amazing...
To start with, when we called on a Friday evening to check the wait time, we were first told 30 minutes. Not bad at all! So we called back seconds later to put our names in and a girl said there was absolutely no wait, in fact they had open tables as we spoke. So a little confusing already with the staff. The didn't seem to have their stuff together.
When we got there, we were seated immediately outside. It was a nice spot, under the canopy, with a fantastic live musician. It took a while for our waiter to greet us. He was friendly, but that was about all. Once he left us with the menus, it took him about 10-15 minutes to show up with our water. By the time he showed back up we were ready to order our meal. We put in 2 "tiny"s, 1 "snack", and a "green'. My friend also ordered a drink. It took 20 minutes before our Little Devils and Lobster Nachos showed up ("tiny"). My friend's drink still had not made an appearance. Our waiter placed the food down and walked away. As we began to dig in we realized we had no silverware, napkins, or plates. We waited a few minutes and without anyone coming by, I had to go in and find a waiter (who wasn't ours) to get plates and silverware.
Her drink did finally show up. Mango something or other, that was made with a very unripe mango with little flavor. Extremely disappointed with that.
The Food: The Lobster Nachos should NOT be called nachos. They are not nachos in the least bit. You are presented with 4 skinny wontons with the lobster mix on top. Very disappointing. Understandably it is a "tiny" but don't use the word nachos if they aren't nachos. The taste of the lobster, however, was FANTASTIC! My friend commented that the Little Devil had good flavor, but she'd had better around the city. Then our "small" and "green" showed up. I got the Bold Pommes Frites (aka fries), with the white truffle oil. I ordered the smaller serving which equates to about one whole potato). I highly suggest, if you get the fries, that you get them with the truffle oil. Otherwise they're just overpriced fries. The aioli they had was good. My friend's salad was far from what I'd call a salad. I wish I'd taken a picture of the disgrace. As described, it was a romain heart, but there rest of the ingredients were very meager, with 3 baby tomatoes cut in half (we counted), a drizzle of blue cheese dressing (which she said was good), and a very small serving of pork belly, which was the highlight of her dish. I would not suggest getting that "green" if you're looking to eat out and enjoy a salad. You can easily make that at home for cheap.
HOWEVER: the couple sitting next to us ordered what looked to be a fish dish (probably the Mahi Mahi) and the Bold Club. Their dishes were very full and smelled amazing. If I were to go to Bold again, which I doubt I will, I would skip the appetizers, smalls, and greens, and just get a main dish.
