Avoid the hype
Wednesday, January 30, 2008
A DISAPPOINTMENT, I think this place is over hyped and the food is not good, people I repeat if you think this is great you need to get out more and taste more NY restaurants, I grew up in New york city and still live here so trust me when I say this from a New Yorker's persepective the food is Bleghhh. I had for an appetizer the, braised quail, please do NOT order this thing its perhaps the worst tasting thing I've ever had, it was a mix of sourcrat, Ham or (Spam?!) and a poor not freshly tasting quail and sweet apples?, Awful combination of flavors it was gross!
I then ordered for my entree the Seared Sea Scallops, Ouch, not fresh at all, certainly just ok not delicious not a WOW plate, just blah. If u think this is fresh seafood you're wrong please try other places.
The chocolate mousse was good, but then again its dessert so it doesn't count.
Seriously and i mean this in a good way take your money somewhere else where you will actually get bread before your meal something we didn't even get at this place, so much for great service, I hope this helps and pass it on, Im certainly telling my friends.
