The ambience in this restaurant was nice. The single red rose I received was a nice gesture. The owner seems to be a nice man. However, I was so disappointed on how things went. We understand and expect an expensive dinner where ever you go on this special evening. I felt that it was the most undesirable valentine dinner we have ever been to. The quality for the price just doesn't justify $150.07. We have been to ... many medium to high end restaurants with good quality food. An hour wait for a 4 small piece of Sea Scallops that is not quite warm when served was really a disappointment. Not to mention the ""pear salad"" that has missing gorgonzola cheese. I can barely taste the dressing but a tiny plate size of a $7.00 side salad; I expected to see the gorgonzola cheese in it ... according to the menu. The waiter came back the second time asked us if ""all we are going to drink is water?"" We found this question inappropriate. I then asked if we can have a wine list. The worst of that evening was the reduction for the (dry) scallops was extremely bitter. I was starving and didn't want to complain that's why I forced myself to eat the scallops. The duck my husband ordered on the other hand was very chewy (& hard) but I figured that's how it should be? I am skeptical in recommending this restaurant to my clients, friends or relatives and feel that perhaps it should be my first and last. Lastly, I addressed my experience to them, but they didn't seem to care or they don?t mind losing a couple of more regular visitors.
