Maybe it had to do with the wildfires in Canada and the hazardous smoke affecting New York City. Something was clearly off that evening. Let me start off by saying that our waiter could not have been friendlier or more caring. He was exceptionally nice and professional. His service at our table also was attentive and overall impeccable. Yet, I don't understand why the three tables around us where the guests had left were left unattended. There were empty plates, bottles, glasses, and cutlery all over the tables. Really surrounding our little semi-corner table. This made for a highly unappealing ambiance. In New York City, you usually have busboys or the waiters themselves clear the table. There were only two other tables with dining guests that night, so I don't know where the shortage came in. Our waiter was busy, but why didn't the hostess chip in? And where was the manager? This is where a manager needs to pay attention to, especially in a restaurant as expensive as Seawolf. Now we're at the price issue. We were a party of three and shared the Half Tower, which was really, really good. Here, the price was right. My husband and myself each had "The Ridgewood," not knowing that this would be a sandwich; it was not described as such. While very good, it lacked a bit of substance, with only two tiny pieces of steak and one piece of lobster, and a bit of side arugula. For $38, I would have expected a bit more. My friend's steak with lobster pieces was $68, which I would have never paid, but he was happy. The kicker, though, was my asparagus side which clocked in $6 for three (3!) tiny stalks. C'mon! It's asparagus season, put five stalks on the plate and we're good, but three is ridiculous. The restaurant closed early that night, with a last call at 9:45 pm, which was okay with us, as the chairs are very uncomfortable anyway. I will give this place another try and see what my experience will be like then.
