They are overrated. 8/30/2005

Took my clients for dinner by trusting good reviews... I lost my face to my clients. The table (for 5) they got for us was the very end of dinning room where all waiters are rushing into kitchen and storage room. To make it worth, they donot have any other nice spots they could offer us (I made reservation much in advance, of course) and sent us a dead space where it took more than 15mins for the waitress showed up and asked us about first round of drinks... Food was very very average being on expensive side. I donot go back for the food, servise and for the cost. Cons: very bad servise more

Great prixe fix! 8/16/2005

I went here yesterday for dinner and it was a Tuesday so it wasn't that crowded, but it was a bit too loud. It would be great for group dining though. I got the $35 prixe fix menu and everything was amazing. The steak was excellent and everything has an interesting twist. Service is great too. Definitely should go and try it once! more

BAD CHOICE 7/20/2005

The place was very crowded, 5 minutes after we were seated at a tiny table, the waiters have pushed my chair 3 times and asked me to move so he could walk through. The food was BAD. The calamari were soaked in a cup of water and tasted like it was loaded with least 8 spoons of sugar. The waitress and waiters were slow and rude. The place was a disaster. Cons: loud, bad service, bad food more

Mean Manager 6/8/2005

I went with a friend of mine for a belated birthday celebration. I had received, via email, a coupon that stated "Receive a $50 credit towards your bill when you spend $50 or more on your next meal". When the check came, they refused to take the $50 off. The person who came to my table said that the wording was not specific enough and was very rude to us. It was very unpleasant for this person to not honor what was clearly stated. The food was good, but I will not be going back there. Pros: Friendly Waitor Cons: Horrible Manager, Noisy, Rude more

Excellent & Delicious Food!!! 5/29/2005

It was an early evening on a friday and I didn't have a reservation here. I was seated almost immediately (party of 2). I am very picky when it comes to having seafood. Here, I had the scallops appetizer and a 'seafood mix' entry. The manager was very thoughtful to have the chef make me a dish not on the menu to my liking. I was interested in a 'mix of seafood' (fish, scallops, shrimp), however, on the menu, the closest dish to what I had in mind was in a soup version. Put it this way, I am NOT a soup person. I was very pleased with my dinner here. Dessert was just as tasty! Pros: Very Tasty Dishes, Nice Setting, Quick Seating Cons: A tad noisy more

Excellent Food (and Prices) 4/24/2005

Dined alone and still had a terrific time. Great place for people watching, the only downside is the noise (so it's not so bad to eat alone). Fantastic waitress who was very honest about the best choices on the menu. Crab bisque was a big WOW, perfectly steamed mussels in the cream sauce were enough for two people, and the frites (served on a platter) were outstanding. Was full but wanted to try something light from the dessert menu -- the chocolate sorbet is to die for and there were three scoops! Including drinks - also outstanding - my meal was $60. Definitely a deal. Without a doubt will return. Pros: Waiters, Location, Inexpensive Cons: A little loud more
