"We moved to the area in December, and we were hoping this was going to be our new neighborhood goto restaurant. This was our time dining at this restaurant since New Years Our meal on New Year's Eve was out of this world, and perfect! The menu and the service were both beautiful, the ambience, not so much as we were seated in the bright lighted, casual oyster bar area, but everything else made up for it. It was so wonderful that we returned the following week and dined on the regular menu. We preferred the special NYE menu, but found some yummy things on the regular menu. Unfortunately, the last times we've dined have been significantly disappointing. It's unfortunate that a dining experience can change so dramatically in such a short length of time. The last time we dined, we took friends with us on a Sunday night. The restaurant was not busy. Our service was slow and the wait staff was unattentive. The food was unfortunately equally poor. I ordered a steak medium rare that was served twice, medium well. We ordered a hamburger that was also overcooked and hard. We were unable to eat of the meals served. Our server was apologetic, but unfortunately no member of management addressed our table or concerns. The food, mixed drinks and the service were FAIR. The restaurant location is beautiful and has the potential to be a wonderful dining experience. There is really no fine dining or upper scale dining in the area so this restaurant has the opportunity to take that spot. However, the inconsistency of the food presentation, the food quality and service are concerning to us. I wrote a star review for our first visits. Every restaurant has an off night, but this experience seems to be decompensating a little more and more on every return visit. I am hopeful that these concerns can be addressed and wish them more success in the future! Until then, I sadly cannot recommend this dining experience"
