When we arrived on time, the receptionist said that we didn't have a reservation even though I made the reservation on OpenTable two weeks early and asked for a table in the main dining area. She said she didn't have a table for us in the main dinning room because other people made reservations. I showed her the confirmation text from OpenTable but she didn't care and sat us against the wall in the sunroom or whatever you call the side room.

The food was excellent, however, we had a 7:15 reservation and were not seated until almost 8. While waiting to be seated, we witnessed a man who looked to be the owner, yell at someone on the phone, hang up on them twice, and then slam his phone onto the table in anger. We were seated next to a large retirement party, and all the members of the party were standing around our table while we were dining - I could not even lift my arms without hitting someone as that is how close they were standing next to us. The volume level was literally insane- my throat hurts today from yelling to my friend sitting next to me. Our main course took FOREVER to come out, but like I said, everything was delicious- probably the only saving grace of the night.

Two out of the three entrees for our group of three were good. I had the Halibut special and it was excellent. My husband had the Rack of Lamb special and really liked it. My brother had the Chicken Parm off the regular menu and it came out "crispy" - way overcooked. The service was spotty after we placed our order. The server walked by our empty glasses as she fussed over the table next to us to see if they wanted more water (they declined) and the. Walked right passed our empty glasses for a second time with her pitcher. I had to energetically flag her attention to which she simply looked at me and said "What?" When I asked for more water, she CJ tinued on into the kitchen and came back out with a corkscrew for the other table. Finished with serving their wine, she the. Went back to the kitchen. Eventually she reemerged with the water pitcher again and this time visited our table for the first time in 45 minutes. Outside of those few things, the rest of the meal was pretty okay.

Our party of 6 had to wait outside for around 15 minutes past our reserved time. Our waitress Amy was very good - very smiley, good natured, and efficient. The ambience is nothing special, but it is a lively place full of people. The food was excellent, but I found it very pricey - 6 people, with no drinks, cost close to $250, which includes the tax and tip (a 20% tip was automatically added to the bill).
