| - Weak in general. I stopped in with a couple of friends for a nice dinner. Service was generally very slow, it seemed they were understaffed. Started with the Bacon and Cheese Bread, which is a clear win when coupled with the herb butter. For a couple of apps, we ordered the Shrimp Cocktail and Ahi Tuna. 4 large but not impressive shrimp and a sauce made up the cocktail. The Ahi was pepper crusted to an extreme level, and the tuna was lacking in flavour. I added a wedge salad, which was a bit different that usual. It seemed to have a sparse amount of blue cheese, and chopped egg white, with a very salty dressing.
For the main, I ordered the English Cut Prime Rib, with garlic mashed, spinach and a Yorkshire pudding. There was a onion gravy that tasted more like a mix than anything scratch made. Unfortunately, there was no gravy on the Yorkshire pudding, rendering it a chewy, hollow biscuit.
The prime rib was reasonably well done, but lacking in flavour. Some of the salt from the salad could have been diverted!
I could not finish the meal, and skipped on desert. So far, the only part of the meal I immensely enjoyed was the bread starter course. Unfortunate, because I like this hotel!
