| - I'm definitely not the type of person who likes to give merely 1 star... but after my experience here, it's hard to give it anything more. The only thing going for it really was the view... too bad though that it was too dark to see the water.
We went here for my birthday dinner a few nights ago. Walked in, nice decor, but were greeted by the smirk of a man who was looking down his nose at us - especially since we didn't have a reservation. The place wasn't busy... maybe half full, if that. We waited patiently for about 20 minutes to be seated.
The waitress was... somewhat polite; I mean, she did try to cater her suggestions to her audience. I'm Japanese, but you know... just because I am doesn't mean that you need to suggest all the Asian dishes as specialties. She did the same racial profiling to the table next to us of Italians. While I understand her meaning behind it and I'm sure she didn't mean to be offensive, I just found it odd. Unfortunately, she also didn't know anything at all about the wines, but I made a selection we enjoyed anyhow.
We ordered the calamari as the app and it came out cold. I personally have never enjoyed cold fried items, but hey that's me. I'm not all that sure how long it had been sitting in the window, but since it took about 30 minutes to arrive at the table I assume a while. The whole night it felt as though our waitress was avoiding us since the calamari sat nearly untouched for at least 15 minutes until she came by with my friend's clam chowder soup. The soup he said was good, but I found it slightly inexcusable that she kept walking past our table and looking at the untouched appetizer whilst she continued to service the table next to us to her fullest extent. For our entrees, he ordered shrimp 3 ways and I ordered a simple shrimp and crab pasta. His was overcooked to the point of rubber and mine made me feel ill immediately after consumption. We both decided to skip out on desserts due to the awful service and poor food quality.
One thing that upsets me is when a restaurant ruins its ingredients and this one did. Go for the soup and nothing else. If you expect even a smidgen of decent service, don't even bother. It's over priced and pretentious for food that is improperly prepared. Before exiting the establishment I had to excuse myself in order to "go bulimic" and my friend felt incredibly sick the next day. Stomachs beware!
