Wanted to like the place but it fell short of expectations, even if I give credit for it being Valentines Day.
First, they had a pre fixe menu, which is fine, the wife chooses that option, but I went off the regular menu that was also available. The location I'd describe as a business center. It was dark, but didn't look like much around it. It was at capacity, but it wasn't over stretched or stressed as some Valentines Day's out have been for us sometimes.
Gave us water, took drink order, good. At that time, we asked for the first part of the meal. The wife's pre fixe came with options for the first choice and she can't avoid French Onion soup. I choose the wedge salad.
Waited maybe a little long, but it felt longer because no drinks, no bread. The soup and salad came from someone else, the waiter did not notice no drinks or bread, and we base our rating (and tips) on being part of their job (we don't point it out if they don't ask "How is everything").
The wife' soup wasn't hot, more lukewarm+ but she said it was watery with no real flavor, had a huge piece of bread in it (too much). She did say the cheese was good. I will say, she always finishes her onion soup but not on this day. My wedge was OK.
The waiter appears to tell us our main meal is on the way out, and that's when he acknowledges we got no drinks or bread. At this point he becomes more attentive. I declined my drink (too late now. The water was good enough), the wife took hers, and we got bread. He kept trying to push us to have more bread, I think in an attempt to make it up to us. We declined.
Main meal didn't improve things. Wife's salmon was thin, the cauliflower puree was cold. They took her knife, and she had to ask for one. My rigatoni was al dente, which is OK, but not when it is cold. The middle bottom was hot, but you know what that means. Left me unsatisfied.
The dessert chosen was chocolate cake, with none of the alcoholic cherries, and that was an ugly cake.
