"I have no idea why the RTD gave this 4 out of 4 stars. It was 2.5 to 3 stars at best. The atmosphere is nice, but our server seemed new and confused. 4 stars says to me that everything is fantastic and he was definitely a weak link. I ordered Pellegrino or whatever bubbly water they carried and was told all they had was club soda. Ok, that's fine too, but it seems odd a restaurant of their supposed caliber wouldn't carry a mineral water. The waiter told us the specials, we ordered, he came back and said they were out of what I ordered. Ok. I ordered something else. He came back and told me they were out of that too. Ok. So I ordered the Arugula salad, which was interesting, but way too salty. I could actually crunch on grains of salt- it wasn't because of cheese or dressing. The beef cheek tacos were tasty, but the special- scallop tacos- were bland and flavorless. The scallops were so undercooked that they tasted like ceviche. There were only 2 choices for dessert ?! Our party of 4 ordered both to split. The chocolate pot de creme was great but the Rosemary cake was just bad. It tasted like dense bread- just weird. Overall, it was a pleasant place with amateur service and food that has hits and misses. If they can improve their waitstaff and fine tune their dishes, it may one day deserve the 4 stars the newspaper gave them. I hope they do. It's a great location and we need a great, consistent restaurant in this part of town"
