| - TO BE FAIR: I wish i could have done 2.5 star.
Now the review....
Looking for dinner reservations on a saturday for 7:00 seemed like a nightmare. Every where was booked, but this place...should have been a warning sign.
Found the place easily right in chinatown. Pretty empty at 7 pm. Got in before happy hour cocktails was over.
7.00 for a drink before 7.00. had a gin and tonic type....and that was good.
So when we go to new restaurant to try, we hate making decisions....usually we ask the waiter to bring us 4 or so of there most popular dishes or his fav. Our waiter was useless. He litterly named everything on the menu. We asked opinions and got pretty much oh thats good. thats my fav.
So we settled for : CSB buns, Tuna Tartar, the quail risotto, and the short ribs.
POSITIVES: the CSB buns was good! loved the fried dough. the short ribs were very tender
Negatives: the tuna tartar, was way to smokey...we thought it had coffee in it almost. Also to much things going on, flavors everywhere.
The Rissotto....cold, felt over done, just not good at all.
3 drinks, and hte meal, bill was 150ish.
The Ambiance was nice though of this place.
Just nothing about this place was good. If our waiter was better, probably 3 stars? He was never really around after our original order. And probably the most useless unhelpful waiter ever.
