"i came here with my mom who was in town visiting me, encouraged by other reviews, and was not all that impressed by what i saw/ate. here's what we ordered - at the server's suggestion we ordered and shared multiple appetizers and got one main course to split:\n\nrhubarb caipirinha cocktail - 5/10 - not rhubarby enough... kind of flavourless, somewhat bitter alcohol\n\nhouse made baguette and gougeres - 5/10 - good enough i suppose, but an incredibly small portion, and the baguette was more of a bread twist? definitely not a baguette\nwarm olives - 8/10 - the olives were quite nicely marinated, and the portion lasted the whole meal!\nla quercia rosa proscuitto - 9/10 - yum i am a huge fan of proscuitto, and la quercia rosa makes some delicous meat, but where's the bread?\nburrata cheese, roasted grapes with toasted bread - 8/10 - great flavour combination, the warm mild cheese matches well with the sweet grapes and rich olive oil, but for 13 dollars it should have been double the size\ngrilled tuna - 5/10 - meh. no real identity to this dish, not surprising that it's not currently on the menu\n\nculotte steak with pont-neuf potato - 9/10 - very well cooked, went very well with the potatoes and mushrooms in surrounding it, an enjoyable meaty dish\n\nthe food in general was very hit and miss i found, some dishes were very good, some were very forgettable (i'm pretty sure that we also ordered a vegetable dish, but i have no recollection of what it was). the unifying theme to the food though was small portions and high prices, enough to knock a star off of the review, from 4.5 to 3.5 stars.\n\ni don't normally put too much wait in my reviews on the service, i prefer excellent food to excellent service (or ambiance, or cleanliness), but i chose to round down to 3 stars rather than up to 4 stars due to the incredibly snobby and rude service me and my mother received. i have honestly never been treated so poorly before and it was shocking. multiple times our waitress rolled her eyes when we aksed her about the menu, our water was never refilled, and when we asked if we could sit farther away from the door (it was a bit of a chilly night and the door was open for some reason), she laughed and said that the table we wanted was going reserved for people who had reservations an hour and half from when we arrived.\n\ni don't doubt that other people have had great experiences here, but i won't be returning."^^ .
