The service was good. The food was fair, portion size was very small and EXTREMELY expensive. While the room was beautiful, the stench of cigar smoke was nearly unbearable. So, to be clear: food was only fair, portions were small, cost was unacceptable, and the room smelled bad. I cannot recommend!

We booked dinner during the Christmas season and it was definitely a huge disappointment. We walked up to the hostess stand and there was a luggage rack with dirty dishes from an event to greet us. The cigar bar door was open and cigar smoke was present throughout dinner - another customer complained. The food was very expensive and sub par. We didn't even get our pre dinner cocktail for over 40 mins! The place is run down and poorly run. So sad to see such an iconic place is that state. I would strongly recommend against going there :(

Portions are small. The appetizers more so. Food was fair. Wine was good. Bread was very good. Expressed an allergy to lobster twice during the order and confirmed it would not be part of the dish. Then asked and confirmed again when served to verify there was no lobster. The dish was loaded under the fish and sauce with lobster. It took 5 people to listen to the issue and the “manager” was #4. He said he’d fix it and didn’t. However they did take off $400 from the $550 bill. Won’t go again. Too bad because it’s such a beautiful place.

The setting was beautiful and the food was good if overpriced. However, our service was slow and somewhat inattentive.
