My beef was perfectly cooked and the sauce was rich and tasty.My wife's salmon dish was perfectly cooked with a touch of exotic spices.The appetizers were a prelude to an enjoyable evening.The waiter was knowledgeble and educated about wines.We will definetely be back to probably sit on their beautiful european looking patio.Job well done guys.
The restaurant was very busy.My food was very delicious and that is Impossible as a previous review states that his steak was boiled.If he wanted a free meal he should have stayed at home.Chinese restaurants boil their meats.I am a regular at this restaurant and I have never been disappointed.
After reading the reviews I decided to take my wife for our anniversary.We were very impressed with the service and the food.It was our first time there and we will definetely go back.
After reading some of the reviews from other patrons, I was expecting something much better. While the decor and environment was nice, and the service staff friendly despite being a little inexperienced, the food was disappointing. The calamari was bland and could have used some lemon. The mushroom soup was bland with very little taste of mushrooms and was clearly made with a potatoe or some form of starch powder. The steak was actually sent back. Twice. The steak was overcooked and well done the first time around while it had been requested to be medium rare. The second time it was sent back was because it just tasted terrible. It appeared as if the meat was boiled before thrown on the grill briefly. Either that or the meat was old. Likewise for the lamb. I'm not sure if the cook was just "out to lunch" this evening, but I was very disappointed with the food.
They didn't even have a celery stick for my caesar, although they at least gave me some olives as a garnish instead.
We should have been warned when the reservation...
We should have been warned when the reservation was made that most of the restaurant was booked for a baby christening party. It was chaotic and extremely noisy with lots of children running around and we were seated at an awkward "pieced together" table...as were many other patrons that evening. Service was sporatic and our table seemed to be handed off to random waitstaff throughout our dinner. The food was fine but didn't live up to prior reviews. It's highly unlikely we will visit again.
