We were seated quite a while before we were served even a glass of water. They must have realized because the host actually came over and poured our water and apologized for the delay. Next up were drinks. Two were fine and 2 seemed skimpy. We didn't complain but when I reordered another it was twice the size...seems very inconsistent. Not sure why the first pour was so skimpy. When it came to entrees, 3 out of 4 were fine but the last one came out wrong and was sent back. When it did come back the meat was not at the proper temperature. We have been there several times before and always had a good experience. I will chalk this one up to an off night. However, it may be quite a while before we return.

It was New Year’s Eve, however, none of the dishes were good. The short rib flat bread was the best part. The Halibut special was so overcooked and dried out not even the red pepper purée could save it. The filet mignon (ordered medium) came sliced, why? It made the meat, which was overcooked, dry as any juices had already run out. The Yule Log dessert special tasted like you were eating fudge since the frosting was hard, thick, and fudge-like. The Brûléed Citrus tart was not Brûléed in any fashion and the filling was as runny as melted ice cream. Drinks were the only good part. One note to the restaurant; since you do validate parking for the garage, why do the servers not ask for your parking ticket to get it stamped for you when you pay the bill or at least mention this fact to you so that you can take care of it yourself? Why do you have to notice a tiny little sign at the check-in desk to take advantage of this courtesy?
