"A disappointing experience for what we were expecting at a restaurant at this price point. We were there to celebrate a family member’s milestone birthday. On arrival we were not greeted warmly — in fact, we were not greeted at ALL. Eventually we were seated at our table where we waited . . . and eventually received menus. Eventually too, our drink and very subsequently our meal orders were taken, by staff that was functional but never personable or warm. Menus choices are basically “old stalwarts” and certainly “innovative” is not the aim for the establishment. This aspect was not unexpected on our parts. Food also was UNEVEN. Those who ordered soups found the temperature barely warm. The beef Wellington was perfectly executed though I would have preferred a mushroom filling to the liver pâté, however those of us who ordered the crab stuffed filets found them all mediumwell rather than mediumrare as ordered. Au gratin potatoes were bland. The pianist was talented, but the volume of the music was sufficiently loud as to make cross table conversation all but impossible and we were not exactly in close proximity to the piano. Thankfully, owing to the glacial pace of the meal, the performer finished his evening’s engagement about the time the main course’s dishes were cleared, so we could finally converse. Restaurant decor was staid and would benefit from a fresh interpretation along with pretty much EVERYTHING else about this dining experience"
