| - Our waiter George was very polite and attentive to start with even though he seemed rushed. I order the 10 oz bone in filet mignon and my friend the 8 oz regular filet, along with a salad and a bottle of wine.
The wine came quickly, the overly dressed and disappointingly bland Caesar salad next - it was so greasy we couldn't finish one between the two of us.
After a long wait, the steaks came. I almost spit out my first bite it was so overcooked.
My medium rare was grey and sawdust dry - George apologized and told me that a replacement would be right there in just a couple of minutes. My friend's steak was also overcooked, but his wasn't all grey and he was too hungry to wait. And I waited, and waited, and waited, and our waiter was nowhere to be found. More than half an hour later George came out of hiding with a steak for me and no apologies for the wait. This steak was cooked on uneven heat - half the steak is medium, the other half was well done. I was so hungry by now that I ate the medium half, but couldn't stomach the other part. When George eventually returned with my friend's dessert, I showed him the grey half steak on my plate, and he actually said to me: "Well, it was a big steak" and left the bill on the table. No apologies for the fact that it took more than an hour for me to get food, or that the food was so bad that we didn't eat almost half of the food brought to us.
Moral of the story, if you want terribly cooked, flavourless food with uncaring and inattentive service, then this is the place for you.
