| - Went for my friend's birthday dinner with $50 prix fixe. The hostess was great and friendly when we walked. There are two main reasons I gave only 2 stars.
The portion of food was relatively small for a $50 menu, we had a bread plate, one tiny zucchini ball/person, one piece of watermelon for the watermelon salad, one taco, a few bites of salad, calamari, fries, and a piece of brownie. Also, we have two tables, but each dish they bring us 3 plates to share among us, which means each table get 1.5 plate. Ending up putting one plate on the edge of a table and people from two tables have to share one. Don't get me wrong the food is taste good, but just not worth near $50+tax and tips.
The service was unprofessional I would say. So we had the bread with 3 sauce on the side. One of the bread has sauce underneath it, with a little spill under. (Seem like they were trying to cover the spill with the bread) so I asked the server why is there sauce over this piece of bread, facing down? She told me literally they probably have a spill of the sauce on the plate, when they were filling the ramekin..so I paused. She asked me.. do you want me to bring you a fresh one then? Which bring me by surprise, it should be "I will bring you a new one right away", instead of asking me if I want a new one. Of course I said it's fine. But which restaurant that charges $50/person for bar food, covers their sauce spillage with the bread they are serving?
I don't mind paying $50 for small portion quality food with great service. But this is nothing like that.
