Do not expect to get a table any time within 3 hours of a show at Playhouse without a reservation. They basically take one or two reservations per night per table. Great atmosphere for couples or small groups of adults, not recommended for young children. The service is very attentive and are trained to give recommendations.
Now to the most important part... the food. A heart's worst nightmare. The starter bread is foccacia lightly sprinkled with sea salt, which was good with the pesto/butter/olive oil mixture. The bread was a little doughy. I then chose to start with the calamari, absolutely fantastic! Not greasy, a good crunch and served with a toasted lemon and aoili. I would go back only for that and I mean only for that. I then chose to the server's recommendation to get the scallops in a risotto with asparagus. My dining partners ordered the steak special and a salad with salmon. Both the scallops and steak were crusted heavily with salt, the asparagus was undercooked and the risotto was bland. I am normally a fairly easy stomach to please when it comes to food flavors and balance, but the only meal that tempted the taste buds was the simple salad and blackened salmon. A sad day.
