| - This review is not necessarily indicative of the caliber of this restaurant, but, for us, it was absolutely terrible. We got to the restaurant for brunch on Saturday around 12:15, we had to be somewhere at 1:45 and wanted to be out of the restaurant at 1:15. We figured one hour would be a tight, but comfortable amount of time to eat. We ordered around 12:30, and absolutely nothing came. By 1:15 we had informed our waiter that we absolutely needed to leave and he explained that everything would be out shortly, when we explained that this wasn't an option he said they would box everything up. After another five minutes of waiting for the boxes, we simply left the restaurant given how important it was that we be on time to where we were going. As a longtime server, I understand that being on a time crunch is an added stress to both parties, but we were hoping that 15-20 minutes would be a decent amount of time for the restaurant to prepare our food and another 20 to eat, pay and leave. I am not sure what could have happened (there are many possibilities, I'm sure), but having not even received food after 45 min of waiting is rather obscene. Beyond that, as we expressed our time concerns, we were given a full check for food we were not going to be able to eat in the restaurant and no manager acknowledged there was an issue. I hope this was just a fluke as I was very excited to try this place. As I am from out of town and come to visit family infrequently, I won't ever be able to try the place again. All I can say is if you have an important engagement and don't have two hours to devote to your meal, perhaps think twice about eating here. The menu looked great and service was friendly if not somewhat aloof.
