    Hate typing this as I’ve enjoyed past NYAJ meals… but last couple have this location sinking. Obvious by lack of customers… but this night had a multitude of issues 1) our server barely talked above a whisper. Hubby who us yard if hearing couldn’t hear her as well… me just barely! 2) hardly anyone watching the tables… so hard to seek out help when needed. 3) things just slow! Luckily we weren’t in a rush 4) out of hubby’s fav beer he orders here so things not starting off well 5) ordered off seasonal menu - pork cane way underdone as in raw in center! Couldn’t put my fork in the sweet potato chunks and brussel sprouts! Seriously hard… had to take plate to find someone… gentleman who offered to help since I didn’t see our server wanted to argue about the pork and it wasn’t raw in center that pork tenderloin can be cooked that way… took plate to correct 6) plate returned and some of the sweet potatoes and most of the brussel sprouts still hard with firm unable to pierce. I opted to eat what was edible as we were out of time and just wanted to leave 7) at 15 minutes to close we start smelling bleach… annoying as one is still eating… but we asked for the check to get out of there 8) but the worse was they had started yo mop the floors… no signs saying wet floors … they are mopping from where we were in bar area to front door up to which ramps up. Hubby in a cane and was sliding and seriously concerned about his safety as he attempted to exit. Gentleman I spoke with about my late there and was like… oh sorry when hubby pointed out how dangerous this ways… he didn’t really seem to care! At this point I doubtful a return visit… sad to see things deteriorate from the amazing start when it initially opened!

    This was once a favorite restaurant. The menu is tired and service lackluster.

    Food was okay. Service was good. Unfortunately, the noise level is bad. It was hard to have a conversation at the table. Then they placed a very large group next to us which made matters worse.

    AWFUL! Place was not full and everything took really long to get. I asked for bread which took over 15 min to get. When they brought bread, waitress walked off without giving us plates/utensils. We waited 15 min until I had to ask the hostess to get us some. Food took 30 min and then we waitress beer asked if we needs refills. She just left a pitcher of water without saying anything.

    Camille is an excellent server. She anticipates timing of salads or appetizers so they don't arrive with the main course. She even came outside to find us when we forgot an item at our table.
