   Service has definitely declined. We have dined here many times and also had our wedding reception here. Servers shirts were visibly soiled and appetizers were brought out at the same time as entrees. Food was okay, salmon very undercooked. Did not receive a wine list at seating and had to request one. Not sure what’s going on here but hopefully they will improve. Disappointing.

   Not the kitchen's best night on what appeared to be a very quiet Saturday evening, but since it they were serving a large private event as well, I'm going to give them the benefit of the doubt. Having said that, the 45 minute wait for appetizers (salad and an order of tempura asparagus, both were fine but underwhelming) was pretty crazy. They also ran out of the scallops special, and asked to substitute a branzino, which again was adequate. For our inconvenience and patience, the very kind waiter comped us glasses of wine which was appreciated, and extended the member's discount on the entire bill. So while we still like the location, the atmosphere, and the staff, it might be a minute before we go back.

   Food was "ok", my biggest gripe is that you advertised Lobster bisque. However, because of the alarm issue, which I understand was beyond your control, the bisque was ofitted. That was a HUGE disappointment as well as a factor in our decision to spend our Holiday there. For $65/pp, you should have at least offered a mimosa gratis (instead of charging an additional $16) for the inconvenience.
