Perhaps this hippity-hop new establishment needs to work out the kinks, but waiting over an hour for our reserved table was a bit much to ask. We were told that our table ""was finishing up dessert,"" but can dessert really take an hour? True, they tried to extend an olive branch by offering each of the four of us a glass of champagne, but it seemed more like an obligation than a conciliatory measure. We would have been better off going elsewhere, as the food was certainly not worth the wait. The hearts of romaine salad came swimming in dressing, the fried calamari was soft and mushy, rather than light and crispy, the chopped vegetable salad was pretty, but looked wilted and overdressed. For our main dishes, we suffered through an overcooked, tasteless $10 burger that was supposed to be seasoned like beef tartare and was requested to be cooked medium rare. It came with a mystery yellow sauce smeared across the stale bun and the traditional set-up of tomatoes, onion, iceberg lettuce and sweet pickles. Very uninspiring. Perhaps it was a bad choice, but when the menu raves that it's ""Luis' famous burger"", it seems worth trying. 21st Amendment has a burger 21x better, and doesn't tout it as ""famous"". The sea bass was over-salted, the pan-seared chicken was served in a stylish cast-iron skillet, but looked like it had been seared for a week. The duck confit pizza was probably the only dish worth eating, as it was the only dish to be finished. The service, while friendly, did not show much menu knowledge and was flighty and inconsistent. The only thing that didn't require an enormous wait, was the delivery of the bill. Unless you enjoy long waits for below average food, take my two cents and spend it elsewhere. Two bad.
Pros: Interesting lights
Cons: Everything else
