    Fresh Suburban Hell For years, Lindey’s was a cool urban restaurant with good food, good service and a nice urban vibe from the arty, slightly hip crowd. Last night it was the dining choice of suburbanite families in tee shirts, shorts and trainers who chew with their mouths open and had table manners that would embarrass the Borgias. Regrettably, the food matched the clientele. The appetizer and salad were good but the evening special fish dish was dry and tasteless. I ordered basque cheesecake for dessert and received a purple slice of something that resembled blood pudding but didn’t taste nearly as good. I ordered a bottle of wine and they claimed be out - I still think the server just couldn’t pronounce “Vin Gris”. Service was marginal - even though there was no crowd, it took 15 minutes to get two simple cocktails. They came with our entrees before they had cleared the plates for our starters and then just stood there until we moved the starter plates (this is a pet peeve - to me the ultimate sign that a restaurant has lost control of the dinner service). Sad to see the sorry state of affairs at what used to be a great restaurant.

    Enjoyed dinner with 2 friends. Our server, Daniel, was excellent. French onion soup, chopped salad and house salad were all delicious and fresh. Did you know you could order a half salad? Entrees included a salmon special, crab cakes and Chilean sea bass which were all perfectly prepared. For dessert we tried the tiramisu and Creme brûlée along with a specialty coffee. It was a well-paced, absolutely delicious meal. I noticed diners were spread out among the various seating sections on this Tuesday night which made for a quieter environment for conversation.

    The calamari was outstanding- the combination of the calamari with peppers, shrimp, lemons was perfect. I had the lobster risotto which was very tasty. My husband enjoyed the nut crusted chicken salad but would order something else next time. The sourdough bread was very good.

    We were celebrating our anniversary. Lindeys gave us each a glass of champagne and a real candle for the table. Other folks (both staff and patrons) in the restaurants would stop by and say Happy Anniversary. The dinner, wine and desert were all great. Service impeccable and atmosphere perfect for a romantic dinner.

    Great service by Nick and the appetizer was perfect. Drinks at $12.00 a little higher than usual? The entrees were very good but the desert was top notch. Plenty of attention from servers and staff. We will be back!
