Had a very disappointing dinner here recently. I thought I couldn't go wrong with the Ritz-Carlton for a special occasion dinner, but unfortunately, the food is rather subpar for the price. And the service was slow, despite the fact that it wasn't very busy--we had to wait way too long between courses. Finally, and surprisingly, the atmosphere is lacking. The place has a loud-ish, hotel bar vibe with pop music playing and bar noise--not what one would expect for a fine-dining restaurant. But you don't have to take my word for it. I'd really encourage you to check it out some evening before making a reservation and plunking down your dough.
