| - We met here to surprise my mother-in-law for her 80th birthday. We'd made the reservations weeks in advance and at that time, we'd discussed the fact that there would be a vegetarian (me) in the party. They assured us that they could accommodate a vegetarian.
I will say the ambience is nice and there was a table of 8 ready for us at the designated time. Having said that, the wait staff was efficient but not personable. We had two small children with us and (as any parent knows), time is of the essence in term of getting food on the table for them. I ordered their food early and they seemed a bit put out, even though there were multiple pediatric litanies of "I'm hungry!," no bread basket appeared until long after we were seated.
To be fair, the meat-eaters all seemed happy with their food. The dish that the chef "whipped up" for me was, I kid you NOT, a plate with four steamed vegetables--that's it. Not a protein, a grain, a seed, a starch, a noodle, or a sauce. NOTHING. What?! In 2017, in a time when plant-based diets are becoming increasingly adopted, THIS is REALLY the best you can do. They should be ashamed.
The dessert tray was nice and our selections were tasty.
Fellow vegetarians....be warned!
