Review content:
The good: Waitress was nice and attentive. Wine list acceptable. My friend's seafood & rice dish looked good. $4 mil spent over several years to bring this beast to life so it's pretty and spacious...kinda like the "wow" factor of the two story foyer & great room McMansions most of the builders market with the same effect: after a year they make the owners feel small and the overly spacious place is found to be inefficient, noisy, & always feels cold...even at room temps. Waiters will be in good shape tacking on the miles of walking it will take to navigate this joint.
The bad: Where to start? My $26 Halibut was over-cooked & dry.
Luke warm string beans and carrots looked and tasted as if right out of the bag and dunked in a warm water bath before being tossed on the plate. How hard is it to toss them in a fry pan with a little butter, olive oil and garlic, or some other simple but tasty recipe? For $26 I expect at least a minimum amount of effort.
Want dinner music? No problem, just break out your wallet and feed the "Internet Jukebox". Unit says "12 plays for $5". Seems pricey to me but I said "what the heck, this place needs music". But BEWARE, the songs I selected were apparently the wrong ones (an old Tori Amos album) and each selection cost 2 credits. So for $5 I got 6 songs. It would have been cheaper to buy the CD.
Live weekend music is nice but the owners spent $4 mil on everything EXCEPT ANY acoustic treatment. Folks...you don't put a rock band up against a glass wall in a room with minimal soft and cushy materials and expect decent sound. At LEAST put a heavy curtain behind them!
And how about spending 0.01% of that $4 mil on a website that reveals to the world who is taking the stage when and what the wine list looks like?
If you are thinking about going to this place, you had better hurry because I will bet they will not last through the spring unless they have another $4 mil stashed away somewhere they can afford to lose.
Pros: Our service was good
Cons: everything else
