When entering this establishment, you see the grand patio out front and of course on a gorgeous sunny day, who doesn't want to be outside. Well, listen up, while there are many tables and umbrellas to sit under there simply are not enough chairs to sit. Why do you ask? Well that's because they are only licensed for 40 people...seriously? Why is there enough tables to seat 60+ then? Our party had to be split up and then we had to wait for others to leave and then steal a chair and bring out the rest.
I ordered the special of the day which was some sort of curry concoction. Let me tell you something, this was nothing remotely close to curry. I think they sprinkled some curry powder on top of the sauce and served. The taste was bland and definitely not worth $10. I saw others had ordered the mac and cheese and when it arrived it came in the tiniest little ramekin. Yes, it was a ramekin not a bowl.
They are a new establishment so I'll give them a little credit as they were overwhelmed but seriously, the owner is not new to the restaurant business (he's also the owner of Starfish), but it was difficult to flag down any server, never mind our own, and the service was slow slow slow.
The oysters apparently are the piece de resistance here as their empty shells decorate the floor of the patio. But boy, if you're selling oysters, get more than ONE guy shucking 'em cuz well, you'll be waiting for your order for at least 20-30 minutes.
Notable mentions, the decor inside was very cool. Dark wood and rustic with barrels and of course the bathrooms were top notch. I have a thing with bathrooms and this one was nice, although it was very new. A few of the servers were wonderful, one of them acted like a veteran and was nice and friendly and cheerful and even though she was not our server, she gladly took and filled orders.
Honestly don't think I'll be coming back here and probably wouldn't have ever considered to come here if it wasn't for yelp but hey, I now know and have an informed decision.
