My boyfriend was really excited about this place. He's heard nothing but great things about it. He decided to make us reservations for inside incase the weather got too cold. We pulled up and the scenery was like a little hide out in the middle of the city. We were really excited. As soon as we checked in, he got a feeling that it was not going to go well. The owner was checking us in and told him we were sitting outside. Then after ten minutes he finally got us on the list for inside. This was the first sign of no one in that place being on the same page. We finally got sat at 830 when out reservations were for 8. But we were still excited. The only speedy thing about our service was the water glasses. Our order wasn't even taken for another thirty minutes. Ten minutes after that, we finally got the bread, which was the only tasty part of the meal. My boyfriend had no water in his glass for over thirty minutes before he had to flag someone down like he was marshalling in an aircraft. Our appetizers finally made it but tasted like they were made at the beginning of the night. my soup never made it to me and when our food finally got there was after 10pm and mind you we were sat at 830. At the first bite my boyfriend took of his luke warm over cookd chicken breast, he just had to talk to the owner. He then acted like we were in wrong! Then our waitress had the nerve to tell us to come back when it wasn't a busy night. I'm pretty sure my lobster sat under a lamp for awhile. We didn't take a second bite. All of our dirty dishes and glasses sat at the end of the table the entire night. Our waitress had four tables and not once looked at us. If the service was better, we wouldn't have minded the wait. The patio looked romantic and the guitar player was the only thing that saved the night. We ended up going to Zio's where the food and service was 1000Xs better.
Pros: Ambience on the patio
Cons: everything else
