| - Food and service was what we'd expect for a busy Saturday night and a big group... however, WATCH YOUR WALLETS!! We were pick-pocketed right in front of our eyes, likely by a patron. Regrettably, we won't be back again.
It's really too bad because we chose this restaurant due the ambiance, price point and quality of service and food, which were ideal for a big family group. We made an early reservation to celebrate a loved ones birthday. Highlights of the meal included friendly service, prix fixe menus (folks liked the prime rib and steak, for example) and family-friendly atmosphere (many people with babies and kids). Everyone was pretty happy with their food, which included appetizers, wine, a range of mains and desserts (crème brulée, brownies and pecan pie were yummy).
The service staff did feel badly and were apologetic about the theft (incl Management), however, the fact that someone dug into a purse and ruffled through pockets that were not exposed or in the open, is really unacceptable, disappointing and will keep us from visiting again. To confirm that it was a patron that was responsible for the theft, my loved one called her credit card company immediately only to learn that their card was blocked because of some irregular purchase attempts at Scarborough Town Centre within an hour of us discovering the theft.
For big groups, there really are a few options for where to sit in this restaurant (you will be right in the middle!) so beware, folks! Spacing is tight, and that means that many people will be walking by your jackets and personal belongings. It doesn't matter how well you conceal your items (for example, the wallet stolen was in a small, closed purse with a scarf stuffed on top, tucked into a seat), but with so many people walking by, the opportunity is great for those with fast fingers!
