Huge Disappointment
1 Star Rating: Not Recommended

02/23/2005 Posted by xpuhlode

If you enjoy eye rolling from the waiter, spending tons of money to have horrendous service, and getting average food for your money, then you've found your restaurant. First, I went on Valentine's Day and waiters were running around like chickens with their heads cut off. Not very romantic at all. Second, my waiter (male) obviously has a superiority complex. When i did not want to check my coat, i got an eye roll. Another when I did not feel like wine. No appetizer for my girlfriend, and yet more eye rolls and a gnome-like snort. Our appetizers took an hour to arrive, and I got some excuse as to how the mussels take a long time to cook. They were also growing my salad. Third, the food was average. The wild boar pasta special tasted like beef stew. Not bad, but not great. Overall, a huge disappointment.

Pros: Eh

Cons: Disorganized, Superduper waiter, Average food
