| - This place gets amazing reviews. We were excited to try it. Extremely disappointed. Don't waste your time or your money. Over $300 for 2 people without a bottle of wine (just a glass and 1 cocktail) and without dessert.
Bar service- When we got there, the table wasn't ready (we had reservations). They told us we would wait at the bar if we wanted. We walked over to the bar, which wasn't packed but people were seated there. The bartenders never acknowledged us, never looked up, despite our numerous attempts to get their attention, get a drink. etc. We were there 20 minutes, never got anyones attention before we finally were taken to our table.
Sommelier- I wanted a glass of wine, but am only familiar with california wines. Here, they have mostly greek wines. The waiter suggested a wine based on my description and offered a taste and also then sent the sommelier over. I tasted it and told the sommelier that it wasn't exactly what I was looking for. I tried to describe what I might be looking for. He said that what he had was too this or too that. I asked if maybe they had a bottle of something we could order since he didn't think there was anything they sold by the glass he thought I would like. He stood silent, then stood there staring at me, then off in the distance for literally 2-3 minutes waiting for, I don't know what. I blindly stared at the menu, then him, not sure what he was expecting me to do. At a loss and very uncomfortable at this point, I ended up caving and ordering a glass of the wine I had already told him I really didn't like just to get him to leave. What a mistake, but when someone tells you he has nothing he thinks you'll like then doesn't leave, what do you do?
Food- the appetizer was average to even below average, the fried zucchini was cold and soggy. The main, grilled fish, was fresh and seasoned well, but the waiter advised us where the bones would be, collar, shoulder. Wrong, there were bones everywhere. Not so appetizing digging bones out of every bite.
Go somewhere else.
