    The service was poor. We waited 45 minutes between courses with no update regarding the extended wait time. Three of our six meals came to the table overcooked. The manager/owner however kindly took the time to come to the table and announce to us "we took the plates to the kitchen and our chefs looked at them under the light and have determined they were cooked to the appropriate level". WOW. This is our third attempt at Restaurant Martin. The food each time has been disappointing. On this particular visit the staff was disengaged and the owner was aggressively defensive AND the food was disappointing.

    Excellent pea soup. The duck was delicious, although the potion was very small. The chicken was an inspired preparation.

    We enjoyed having dinner on the patio. Although the day's temperature was a new record high, the patio was very comfortable. The four of us each ordered different entrees and were exceptionally pleased with the taste and service. We will return.

    My friend and I had dinner on the outdoor patio, August 6, 2025. The service and atmosphere was good. Wait staff very friendly and attentive. Food good, but not spectacular. The main issue we both had was that both of us are gin drinkers. We each ordered a cocktail and specified to the waitperson that we wanted Tanqueray or Bombay gin. My friend requested an Aviator cocktail which traditionally contains Creme de Violette and Luxardo. The waitperson failed to tell us that Tanqueray gin was not available and that the house bar only had New Mexico made gin and spirits. The bartender did not tell us until after dinner that he had substituted New Mexico made gin and something for Creme de Violette and Luxardo which he did not have. Both of us were disappointed in the cocktails. If the wait person or the bartender had told us this ahead of time, we would have changed our orders to a nice glass of wine.
