Reviews
I had their fried chicken that came recommended from our waiter and I’m glad I did! A plump chicken breast with a fine layer of crisp fried batter. The hot honey glaze was a perfect addition too; it had a slight ping of heat on the back of your tongue so it didn’t overpower the meal which was perfect.
After being seated, we waited another 30–35 minutes just to receive bread. Nearly 1 hour and 10 minutes later, we finally received our first dish: cured salmon tartare. It was served warm, which was very disappointing, as tartare is typically cold. It was bad enough that we didn’t eat it. The waitress noticed the untouched plate but didn’t say anything or ask if there was an issue—poor customer service.
The pumpkin soup was delicious and, honestly, the best dish of the night.
Next, we received crab cakes that were almost burnt, dry, and clearly rushed. It felt like the restaurant was overwhelmed, the kitchen was closing, and they sent out whatever came up. The braised short ribs were underseasoned and lacked flavor.
We had high expectations coming here, but they couldn’t even get our drinks right. It seems like they are prioritizing quantity over quality. Is that really worth it? I will never come back.
For a restaurant recommended by the Michelin Guide, this experience was terrible. It should not be listed on that website at all. Seating so many people together that the waitress couldn’t even move around the table—forcing guests to pass plates and glasses—was unacceptable and uncomfortable. Honestly, I’m sure the fire department wouldn’t approve of that setup.
To make matters worse, the waitress herself was asking us to pass plates and glasses around the table, which was both awkward and unprofessional. “Sardines” should be the new name for this restaurant. Beautiful restaurant, but terrible service and terrible food. I hope it was just a bad day for them. Never again for me.
