Showed up and there was no room in valet parking-bad sign to begin with! Although we made reservations 2 weeks in advance, we ended up with seats right next to the kitchen! We went to see Pamela Hart sing and mentioned that in the online reservation also. They failed to address this when they sat us as she was out sick. We were only eating there to see her and would probably have left right away upon knowing that.\r

The wine list is difficult to read because it is poorly organized. Domestic wine list in the middle of the Italian regions which are not in alphabetical order. I expect the wine steward to come to my table if I am asking as many quesstions as we were. They want me to spend $75 and up for a bottle of wine-I'm not going to take advice from a novice waitress. Selection is poor-only 3 Merlots (after reading all the pages).\r

Service was lacking-Water got refilled once. Manager spent 1/2 of our meal cow towing to the table next to us where the patron was wearing a baseball cap!! Waitresses and waiters were more obsessed with making sure that all the meals were served simultaneously than folllowing up-like taking away dishes, asking if we need anything else. \r

Food was fine-just don't want to put up with all the rest. If I were paying Olive Garden prices, might go back. Otherwise, I would rather go to Bellagio or Siena than here if I am going to pay these prices. I can hear the conversation, enjoy the excellent food and not get run over the children upon leaving the restaurant at 10 pm! The Domain is missing the mark if they think upscale shoppers and diners want to find a kiddie playscape during their experience. I'll go to Reed's Jazz club to hear good music.\r
