It was always expensive, but lately excessively so.\n\nAnd while I do greatly appreciate attentive service, I also appreciate some privacy while I eat my meal... WAY too much hovering. \n\nHere's what really got me - this time we dined with our 1.5-year-old (we went early, long before most people would have dinner, so it was mostly empty at that point. Also, we know the etiquette of dining with a toddler, and we do our best to keep her quiet, respectful, and neat... and we would take her for a walk if we needed to... I think MOST parents know that too). What rubbed me the wrong way, was the sign on the wall that professes that they are a family restaurant, but please keep your kids quiet. Really? Don't you think most parents are trying to do that anyway? Doesn't it go without saying? It just seems a bit tacky to put it in writing on the wall. While my kiddo was very well behaved for the whole visit, I felt extremely on edge for the whole meal, nervous that one wrong move might have us shunned.\n\nWon't rush back I'm afraid."^^ . "1"^^ .
