Kind of disappointing really.
I may have come in to this one with too high of expectations. After hearing about how good the salt cellar was I was really looking forward to trying it out. A good weekend came around and off we went.
The room we sat in kind of looked like a down on its luck red lobster. Yes it's underground so I wouldn't expect a view but it was just dark....I think I was expecting it to be brick or stone. It was just dry wall with pictures of ships that looked like they could have been used at a red roof inn in cape cod. Hey maybe they are antiques but they were pretty mass produced looking. Service was alright, but they definitely cater to an older crowd.
Manhattan clam chowder- wicked good
Turtle soup- sort of a gimmick, nothing special...I wanted to like it but it was sort of like a jambalaya sauce with turtle, which could have easily been shredded chicken. You'd almost have to do a DNA test to be sure. But hey it's different so good for that at least.
Swordfish- not served hot, not just the fish but the rice was also not warm...I don't know maybe older people like food to not be too hot, but I was really just disappointed.
Filet-nothing super amazing, it's a seafood place so I don't expect the beef to be the best so I would give them a walk on this one.
Bottom line: just disappointed. I was really expecting this place to be epic...it turned out to almost be an expensive Golden Corral.
