"I loved this place a year or two ago but I just cannot come here anymore. It 's gone completely downhill and the last two times i 've come here have been awful. For one they have an issue serving way overly sour drinks. Last time my boyfriend got the hot toddy and today I ordered a virgin mojito. Both times these drinks were extremely sour to the point where they were gross to drink and we had to send them back. My virgin mojito also wasn 't even sparkling like a mojito is supposed to be and had no soda water, no mint taste, I was literally served a cup of lime juice.For food, we got the pina colada muffins which were really good, but that was the only thing we enjoyed. My boyfriend got the steak and eggs which he said both the steak and eggs were super bland and he didn 't enjoy either. I got the shrimp skewer with two sides, which I picked rainbow carrots and tahini broccoli for. When my plate came I saw the tahini broccoli was raw broccoli, which I hate, and wasn 't specified on the menu. Our waitress had a messed up attitude from the beginning but when I said I didn 't realize the broccoli would be raw and could I switch it for the roasted broccolini, she got even more of an attitude and tried to say it said raw on the menu, which it did not. She then switched it to well tahini means raw .... tahini is a sauce, how would I know it would come raw from that? I don 't think it 's crazy to assume when you 're paying for vegetables at a restaurant that they 're actually cooked. The guy who brought back the broccolini literally slammed it on the table with a giant attitude.To top it off the grilled shrimp was literally white and the texture seemed like it was barely cooked. When I order grilled shrimp I do not expect to get served that. I was uncomfortable saying anything else about the food at that point so I literally packed up my plate in a box and just left and finished grilling and seasoned it myself at home, which is completely unacceptable when you paid to dine out. My boyfriend said he also wished we would have just made breakfast home because he would have enjoyed it more. Both of the last two times we have come here, we left unhappy and not feeling like we had a meal we actually enjoyed. The best thing we had out of both of our last two visits were today 's muffins, which is just sad.It 's getting harder to find restaurants that are still worth dining out in and a lot of places that used to be good just aren 't anymore and this place is no exception. We won 't be back again after today."
