"We were very "underwhelmed" by our experience on Valentine's Day.When we arrived, the staff seemed frazzled... even early in the evening, before they got busy. Our server was excellent, but it took over minutes to get our salad prix fixe menu. We had to inquire about it to jump start them, it seemed. There were also some inconsistencies between the menu description and the dinners they served as if they'd messed up their shopping list and made some last minute substitutions. Not a big deal, just another indicator of their disorganization?The historic house was cool, but the ambiance was not great, with an extremely loud and annoying couple over our shoulder. Can't blame the restaurant for this, of course, but it really highlighted how there was nothing in the furnishings to help control the noise, even in normal circumstances.The real issue is that their food and drink just were not memorable in any way. Their "signature drinks" were not worth the cost, and the tomato broth really looked and tasted like Campbell's tomato soup. We agreed afterwards that the best parts of the meal were the rollsbutter and the dessert. However, even the beignets were too brown and seemed on the verge of shouldn't having been served.Bottom line we felt like we could have done better ourselves at home"
