"I ate alone. My bill was almost $80. The service was very good. However, the owner with her full resume on the menu is not really fit to deal with customers. I ordered sea bass. A half portion of what I was used to at the same price, but at other restaurants. I saw a photo of the dish on the menu and I knew the portion would not be generous, as I ordered. When the dish came to the table it was perfectly done and so were the vegetables. What I objected to, was the half pint of red water in the bottom of the dish. The owner came out and told me this was considered sauce in her restaurant. She kept trying to convince me that I should believe colored water was sauce. After her 3rd try, which I did not accept, she played the "my-English-is-not-good Card. I told her that reduced water could actually be sauce, but that it had to be greatly reduced, but she declined that and was intent on convincing me that water was actually sauce, and what had been intended to be a peaceful meal and reward at the end of the hard day, became a very upsetting enterprise due to this manager trying to convince me that the sun is really the moon. I had to ask this owner several times to just leave my table. They don 't serve a decent wine by the glass either. My advice, go to Bella Luna or Carpaccio for your sea bass from now on. I definitely will not return to this restaurant. They had the opportunity to keep a customer who eats out at least twice a week or to lose that customer. Sadly, they chose the latter."
