Disappointing. I had higher expectations since the ratings averaged 3 1/2 stars. The food left much to be desired and the service was average.
We we greeted and seated pretty quickly. They brought us the regular menu, bar menu, beverage menu and the happy hour menu. So many options. The happy hour looked tasty with lots of different flavors to try. But the happy hour menu was rescinded 10 mins later since happy hour had ended 20 minutes prior. Rookie move.
Anywho... The prices are definitely not cheap and the menu looked great. Lots of steak options... so it must be a what they specialize in or so I thought. When I pay that price for a steak, I don't expect to have to add anything for flavor. Two bites in and I had to add both pepper and steak sauce, still just ok. We had popcorn grits which also lacked a lot of flavor, which needed salt and pepper to enhance the flavor also.
A couple of menu highlights were the apple donuts, the mashed potatoes (very creamy and very tasty - which I like) and tomato salad.
The house pinot grigio tasted like a chardonnay. I would have ordered a chard if that's what I was looking for. Gratefully the waiter honored the happy hour price for the wine since we had ordered it from that menu. So a chilled white wine was still consumed on a warm evening.
All in all, wouldn't come back here. Prices were what I would expect in Chicago or Philly, but without the quality to back it up. But thanks for the yummy donuts!
