The food and the service were just awful. We're regulars at Delfina and have, unfortunately, seen both the food and service deteriorate over the last couple of years. What used to be a fabulous restaurant (deserved of all the reviews) has now lost itself. We ordered take-out and the meal was a mess. The salad was beyond overdressed (with slops of liquid pouring out of the bottom of the container) leaving the salad limp and soggy. And the steak (although itself good) was thrown into the same container as the french fries leaving the fries an uneatable, mushy mess. We called the restaurant just to give them a friendly heads up so they could know what was going on in their kitchen and the manager, Annie, could care less about how our meal turned out. Her response? A disingenuous ""sorry"" for the salad and its your fault for not requesting the french fries be separated from all the au jus of the steak (which the restaurant should know about more than the customer). It really is just so sad. With all the crowds and staff turn over, something's happened to leave the restaurant a high-volume, revolving door with sub-par food and service.
