"We had been looking forward to finally trying this place, not too far from our home, for my wife 's birthday. We had an astoundingly bad dinner. To start, we were greeted by the host, dressed on a Staurday night in faded jeans, with one pocket sticking out. Casual. Very. We had reservations, and asked for a table outside. The host rolled his eyes, said he 'd have to see if it was possible. He looked at his list, turned away from us, took two steps back, looked through a mostly obstructed front window, and without turning back to us, picked up 3 menus and said, I guess we can do it. No smile, no welcome, no warmth. The perfunctory, distracted attitude was the theme of the night, although we noticed that regulars were greeted differently. Our waiter wasted little time on small talk. Do you want drinks? What can I get you? Fine. All night, wait staff walked by our table without picking up empty plates, refilling water, etc. Our food was, to be charitable, mediocre. Turkey meat loaf was an unseasoned brick of ground turkey, burned in spots, served with frozen ! peas and carrots literally scattered over the mashed potatoes, which had the watery consistency of a puree, covered in a mustard colored very watery gravy that further deprived the potatoes of any flavor or character. My daughter 's mac and cheese was similarly bland, my wife 's shrimp dish was watery, oily, and flavorless. This was food that received no skill or care in the kitchen. The host stopped at our table, asked how the meal was, no eye contact. My wife answered, charitably but with serious concern, that it was okay, her inflection clear that it not good food. At any other restaurant where we 've dined, that would have brought a concerned follow-up question, what was wrong? What can we do for you? Here, nothing. He walked away. No response. We ordered a dessert to split, it was a birthday. Key Lime Tart. The crust wasn 't bad. Flavorless, watery, watery topping. Never again."
