| - With our Travelzoo voucher for a 2-person dinner, we arrived around 6:00pm and were seated immediately, with a very friendly waiter.
For appetizers, we chose the escargot and grilled shrimp cocktail. Both plates were a big hit. The escargot was prepared in a delicious sauce. The shrimp was grilled to perfection and quite large in serving size.
We ordered the scallops and 6 oz filet mignon for our entrees. We found the wait time to be quite long between the appetizer and entree course, as more customers started arriving. When the food did arrive, both the scallops and steak were cooked nicely.
The wait for dessert took even longer. Interestingly enough, the 2 servers were also responsible for making drinks behind the bar. I think this really slowed up the service. The Manager did a good job of pitching in, but it also became apparent who the high profile clients were.
We shared the creme brulee for dessert. Although the top sugar coating was crispy, the inside was quite cold, specifically the blueberries. I guess we were expecting it to be a bit warmer, seeing as it took a while to arrive.
We found the experience seemed to go downhill as dinner progressed. Overall, we were satisfied but not sure there's a desire to return, especially at Yorkville prices.
