   Disappointed today. Expected Dungeness Crab but they used snow crabs today. The prime rib which is usually well prepared was served "blue". Overall quality of food was lower and the food was not quickly refreshed.

   There was only a set menu for the New Year’s Eve dinner. The salad did not match the salad elaborately described on the menu and looked like a small side salad from a fast food place with some romaine lettuce and a few halved baby tomatoes. That was not the butter lettuce wedge promised on the menu and special ingredients and dressing were missing. The main course arrived with a barely warm full-size sliced potato. It was a miserable looking entree with said potato, a piece of meat, and like two strands of bean. The dessert we chose was chocolate mousse. The texture was far from mousse-y; it was crunchy and tasteless like some frozen brown something not yet thawed. The whole meal was a poorly executed mass-produced concoction. The people at the next table sent their three pieces of filet mignon back to be re-done. The staff tried but the restaurant was under-staffed. Although mass produced, the items took a long time to arrive. It was not a nice looking restaurant.

   The service was bad on New Years Eve for dinner , they ran out of food! And brought us ice cold bread, when we asked if they could warm it up, we never saw the bread again. It was a horrible experience overall. Our bill for 2 people that day was 247.00 for a horrible experience and food they ran out of , and to top it off they automatically add the tip of 34.00 for services they didn't give . Worst ever.

   Our experience at this restaurant was really disappointing. We reserved for the New Year’s Eve dinner. From the moment we arrived we were greeted with rushed service. Sat at the wrong table, then met with big attitude when we requested a table away from a drafty door and sat at a table that was not properly set. No one ever took our order for drinks, the food was quickly served but the food was not reflective of the price. The baked potatoes were dry and cold, and it clearly showed this was food served a while ago sitting under a heating lamp. The quality of the food didn’t reflect the price. We didn’t get proper steak knives because they were still “being washed” (!) we were told. The device was rushed and unkind, not reflective of the price we paid. I rarely write reviews but this is an ocasión in which my disappointment is so big I must let others know. Perhaps my comment won’t have a real impact, but it was the worst money spent in a meal so far. It really hurt me to pay so much for such a bad experience.

   Not good food at all , for $220 for 2 people, we got just 2 Mini carrots two exact bites, tiny baby yellow zucchini sized of my thumb, small sliced potatoes with tiny bit of butter on top , small filet mignon and small desert. We were still hungry the only big was the 18% service charge automatically added to the bill that was $31 dollars. On top of that the restaurant was extremely cold and everyone eating were freezing cold, tables were not even decorated with a tablecloth or a flower. I was just like any regular meal, nothing spectacular just the price the were charging Haha Service was taking a long time and not even bringing my desert. Never go there again. Save your money and go to Tow restaurant for that price and much much better service and good food.
