- NON OswaltNov 9, 20251.0The place is beautiful you would think for such a high class restaurant, you would have exceptional service. The service was just awful! Was celebrating my father’s 84th bday, sat in the patio. It took 45 min to get a drink!! It took 1hr 45 min to get our dinner!! They comped our meal but will not be returning. Was such a disappointment. I’ll Take our favorite little hole in the wall restaurants with amazing service and food over this any day!

- NGNatalie GrimbergOct 10, 20251.0Terrible service and terrible food. We ordered the roasted chicken for our toddlers to share. The roasted chicken came with 2 pieces a separate breast and thigh. The thigh was rubbery and undercooked. We served our kids the breast only with the mashed potatoes. When the waitress came by to ask how it was, I told her the thigh seems undercooked and rubbery. She took the plate away. She had the audacity to come back with the plate and said “she examined the chicken and it is cooked all the way through”. She asked if we want it back or if she should toss it. I told her put the plate on the table and call your manager. I was so appalled by this. I explained to her manager what type of restaurant takes my plate, “examines” the food, and brings it back for me to eat?! How am I supposed to know if she stuck her fingers in my chicken to examine it? I complained it is rubbery! At the very least replace that piece of chicken…. I’ve never seen such irresponsible handling of food. And to think this is a high end restaurant with high end pricing. The roasted chicken was disgusting. The creamy salmon over crispy rice was fishy The beef carpaccio was bland The NY bone in steaks were both overcooked and so tough We usually go to Mastro’s nearby and decided to give this place a chance. Huge mistake. The manager invited us back for a free meal. No thank you. Never coming back here. There are many other places in this area with good service and good food.
