I ordered a shrimp salad. What I was expecting was lettuce with at least a somewhat generous helping of shrimp on top. What I got was a few pieces of shrimp drowning in mayonnaise. It was awful! My date ordered a pasta dish, which tasted like spaghetti-o's. \r

I'm convinced you have to know a secret password. Maybe if you do they give you an alternate menu with good food. \r

The bar, on the other hand, is lovely. They make amazing martinis.
Pros: great martinis, old school charm, lots of history
Cons: terrible food
