"Last time was four stars. Went in for an early dinner about 5:45 Friday, just the two of us. Dreadful music, loud, rapid stacatto beat...not dinner music by any means. Waitress promptly arrived to inquire as to our water preferences. I mentioned the loud music. She smiled pleasantly through her chewing gum. Ordered a $20 glass of wine and got a very short pour, barely three fingers in a classic white wine glass. Bread arrived with a thumbnail sized piece of butter. We laughed. As we waited for our dinner the staff [at the kitchen door] enjoyed a very fun, exuberant conversation with a pal of theirs who had wandered in and lounged against the kitchen entrance door frame. Dinner: Salad: lovely, Soup: not quite hot but tasty, Mussels; lovely; Duck Confit: dry as a bone. And the music remained throughout, overly loud, bouncy not-during-dinner music. Since my guest was an out-of-towner I was, needless to say, embarrassed. I have loved this spot for years; I was terribly disappointed."
