we were quickly seated at a lovely table and read the short menu. the vegetarian choices were extremely limited (the impossible burger priced at the same $42 as the wagyu burger). fortunately for me, i 'prefer' to eat vegetarian but am not always strict. i asked the waiter whether the 'jidori chicken' was a half chicken or....? he said "somewhere between a half and a quarter" and described it as a leg and thigh with a little bone sticking out. i guess a leg and thigh plus a little bone is morethan a quarter? i asked if it was worth a cheat as i'm a most-of-the-time vegetarian. he said absolutely. the rolls are served and they have no crispy crusts, like they've been in a steamer. i'm still eating my soup -- literally spoon in hand -- when the runner delivers the chicken and takes away my bowl, which i had him put back down. finished the soup and now there's not enough room on the table to get to the chicken. fortunately, the table next to us hadn't been bussed since before we sat down so i simply put it on that table. the chicken was dry and not worth a cheat and as i was wondering *why* it was so dry, i finally took a good look and realized it was a breast. (an airplane breast, which is why it has a bone sticking up.) not a thigh. not a leg. i think white meat is always dry and would never ever order that as my cheat. no one checked on how the food was (spouse's was... fine) until the plates were being cleared. with most of my chicken untouched. to waiter's credit he offered instantly to remove the charge and to get me a salad (don't know how, cause i went with the chicken partly because the vegetarian salad was unavailable) which i declined. we skipped dessert. the price to quality/price to service ratio is way way way out of line. the good thing is that we will forever giggle about a waiter at a high end restaurant who cannot distinguish between a breast and a quarter chicken leg.

Great food, wonderful service in a very pleasant dining room with expansive views and civilized diners. No rowdy children or tables of loud obnoxious people.
