    Was expecting a higher end dining experience. This location is really just a basic place with average service. Was not terrible, but at the prices and the expectations was expecting much better experience. With all the amazing options in carmel, they would have to up their game to get us to return.

    We had a nice quiet seat by the window. I would NOT recommend the filet mignon. It was horrible. It was stew quality chuck at the best.

    We made a reservation through open table which was confirmed. When we arrived for the dinner the restaurant was empty of personnel and no one was there. There was a closed sign on the door. I double checked the reservation and the restaurant’s website for info about the hours of operation, etc. it was supposed to be open. We were very disappointed. We will try again another time when we are in town as we have heard it’s very good.
