Considering we were there at 4:30 and we were only allowed 90 minutes to eat seemed a little bit odd considering we were the only ones there Service was friendly, but we felt a little rushed with the appetizers. They came at once we ordered the tuna tartare, which was excellent, foie gras good but too much on the sauce, and the beet salad, which was delicious. The lobster was flavorful, but it looked like they used a southern type\nBut not entirely sure. I ordered the lamb chops and I requested to be medium rare and it came out as well done. Although I appreciate the correction and I had the most amazing lamb chops, it was an entirely different lamb chops than the one that was initially served. Here’s what I don’t understand if we’re the only ones there and we order a $45 dish. I expect that to be perfect. We got this cute valentine raspberry mousse, which was very delightful.","rating":{"food":4,"service":4,"ambience":4,"value":4,"noise":"QUIET","overall":4,"__typename":"ReviewRating"},"user":{"numOfApprovedReviews":41,"nickname":"Bea","metro":{"metroId":7,"displayName":"Greater Boston","__typename":"Metro"},"initials":"B","isVip":true,"isLoggedInUser":false,"profileColor":"PUMPKIN","profilePhoto":{"photoBySize":{"xsmall":{"url":"https://resizer.otstatic.com/v2/photos/xsmall/1/63928605.jpg","__typename":"Photo"},"__typename":"PhotoSizes"},"__typename":"PublicDinerProfilePhoto"},"__typename":"ReviewUser"},"helpfulness":{"up":1,"down":0,"score":1,"__typename":"ReviewHelpfulness"},"publicRestaurantReply":null,"submittedDateTime":"2025-02-15T17:44:20Z","dinedDateTime":"2025-02-14T16:30:00-05:00","type":"OPENTABLEVERIFIED","fromPreviousConcept":false,"highlight":null,"photos":[{"photoId":"73534313","type":null,"photoMetaData":{"title":null,"source":"Diner","creator":"OpenTable","timestamp":"2025-02-15T17:44:33Z","photoBySize":{"small":{"url":"https://resizer.otstatic.com/v2/photos/small/1/73534313.jpg","__typename":"Photo"},"medium":{"url":"https://resizer.otstatic.com/v2/photos/medium/1/73534313.jpg","__typename":"Photo"},"xlarge":{"url":"https://resizer.otstatic.com/v2/photos/xlarge/1/73534313.jpg","__typename":"Photo"},"wideMedium":{"url":"https://resizer.otstatic.com/v2/photos/wide-medium/1/73534313.jpg","__typename":"Photo"},"wideLarge":{"url":"https://resizer.otstatic.com/v2/photos/wide-large/1/73534313.jpg","__typename":"Photo"},"__typename":"PhotoSizes"},"__typename":"PhotoMetadata"},"caption":null,"showCaption":true,"__typename":"ReviewPhoto"},{"photoId":"73534341","type":null,"photoMetaData":{"title":null,"source":"Diner","creator":"OpenTable","timestamp":"2025-02-15T17:44:49Z","photoBySize":{"small":{"url":"https://resizer.otstatic.com/v2/photos/small/1/73534341.jpg","__typename":"Photo"},"medium":{"url":"https://resizer.otstatic.com/v2/photos/medium/1/73534341.jpg","__typename":"Photo"},"xlarge":{"url":"https://resizer.otstatic.com/v2/photos/xlarge/1/73534341.jpg","__typename":"Photo"},"wideMedium":{"url":"https://resizer.otstatic.com/v2/photos/wide-medium/1/73534341.jpg","__typename":"Photo"},"wideLarge":{"url":"https://resizer.otstatic.com/v2/photos/wide-large/1/73534341.jpg","__typename":"Photo"},"__typename":"PhotoSizes"},"__typename":"PhotoMetadata"},"caption":null,"showCaption":true,"__typename":"ReviewPhoto"},{"photoId":"73534388","type":null,"photoMetaData":{"title":null,"source":"Diner","creator":"OpenTable","timestamp":"2025-02-15T17:45:23Z","photoBySize":{"small":{"url":"https://resizer.otstatic.com/v2/photos/small/1/73534388.jpg","__typename":"Photo"},"medium":{"url":"https://resizer.otstatic.com/v2/photos/medium/1/73534388.jpg","__typename":"Photo"},"xlarge":{"url":"https://resizer.otstatic.com/v2/photos/xlarge/1/73534388.jpg","__typename":"Photo"},"wideMedium":{"url":"https://resizer.otstatic.com/v2/photos/wide-medium/1/73534388.jpg","__typename":"Photo"},"wideLarge":{"url":"https://resizer.otstatic.com/v2/photos/wide-large/1/73534388.jpg","__typename":"Photo"},"__typename":"PhotoSizes"},"__typename":"PhotoMetadata"},"caption":null,"showCaption":true,"__typename":"ReviewPhoto"}],"__typename":"ReviewSearchResult"},{"reviewId":"OT-1181965-189-140014767984","text":"The chicken skewers were very good.
