5 in our family went tonight and although the food is really good I need to comment and give 3 stars for an issue I found disconcerting. As three of us sat down with two who had already arrived and 5 menus on the table I immediately asked family what the horrible smell was. No one noticed a smell but I commented that it smelled like rubber. It was horrible and ongoing. I was just telling my family that we needed to leave and find somewhere else to dine when our server came over and I asked what that horrible smell was and she replied "Oh, it's the menus, they're new." Sure enough, I was sitting directly in front of the pile of menus on the table.
I asked if anyone else had commented about the smell and she replied no but that she had had to stand by the host/hostess stand for a short time near a big stack of those menus and it gave her a headache.
I don't know what the owners are thinking bringing something noxious into their establishment to bother their customers. I'm not even sure whatever they coated their new menus with should be legal. It smelled toxic. So if you go make sure not to get to close and definitely don't touch them if you can help it. Our server said the noxious odor dissipates over time.
