I know this place is wildly popular, and I won't be for this post--but--I honestly wasn't as impressed as I thought I would be. The atmosphere really was lovely and the food was okay, but this is what really did it for me. One of the courses included a piece of lamb. This was okay by me, but for personal reasons, I didn't eat mine. Much to my surprise, the proprietor came out and proceeded to scold me for not eating this piece of meat. I explained my reason and she went on to tell me how delicious it was and that I really should at least taste it.
It seems to me that if I am the paying customer (and the bill wasn't cheap), I should be able to decide what I will and won't eat. I won't be going back--that is for sure!
