Reviews
I went back for breakfast on wed morning. Chef Lou was awesome and he indeed make the best breakfast sandwich ever!
They labeled our reservation as a no show on opentable but we showed up. Just read the other reviews on this restaurant. The host kept saying they let a cook leave at 6 PM that day and that’s the reason for the over 1 delay for service to anyone.
For the price, the food was edible but not enticing. The plates looked like they had been prepped enmasse. They were only warm. There was none of the gloss you get from fresh cut prime, or steaming risotto with cheese beginning its melt. They weren’t hot and fresh. More like prepped and held. A long while, and it was only 1pm. Heaven help the late afternoon crowd.
The salad was baby greens with feta, pomegranate arils, candied pecans, mandarin sections served with a raspberry vinaigrette. As these salads go, it was ok. The raspberry vinaigrette looked more like a raspberry yogurt dressing and was a little sweet. Not objectional, but it didn’t leave you wanting more.
There was no bread served with dinner, and it was missed. Moist chewy focaccia would have been delicious but there was none.
Fortunately for other diners, the regular menu was also available and people could fortify the prix fixe with fries, pizza, calamari. This was not a generous sit down dinner at your grandma’s bountiful table. (Note: enjoy those with gratitude as long and as often as possible.)
We do not do alcohol because of health reasons. There was no up selling of beverages, no cocktail menu was presented, let alone the possibilities of mocktails. Beer & wine was listed on the main menu. Variations on tea or fruity beverages? Non.
I suppose with our meager order of 2 prix fixe perhaps our waiter, Patrick, assumed there was no hope to increase the ticket. That was the last time we saw him l. No offers to refill our beverages, no stopping to assure us our meals were as we wanted them. Never did he inquire how we wanted our prime rib. Others dropped off our salads, and returned in a timely manner with our entrees. We asked the person who cleared our table if a dessert menu was available, and she immediately returned with it. A while later Patrick appeared, and was surprised we wanted dessert. It is blessed Christmas, of course we want dessert. And a refill please.
So, was it awful? No. Do I long to return? Not really, Maybe to get delivery of a wood fired pizza.
Jimmy V, these folks are nice butome of them are lackadaisical. Like the kitchen crew and Patrick. The place isn’t packed. If the food was fresh and hot off the cooker.
Ambition did arise as we finished our dessert. (Dessert was typical prefab fare)
Patrick stopped twice to collect our check long before we finished the sweets. Really, that is gauche. We usually tip very high, 50%, on holidays because we appreciate them being open, the warmth of staff and fellow dinners makes our quiet holiday pass gentler. Alas.
