Made reservations for an early Valentine's day dinner, turns out the restaurant is only open for breakfast. I drive by the hotel several times a week and see a huge banner out front which states that the restaurant is open. Just an awful experience. Open table should not offer dinner or lunch reservations and Forrestal Grille Princeton should take down their sign.

Open Table is not available for this restaurant so arrived for a reservation booked on here that does not even exist and they weren’t very nice about it and couldn’t even accommodate us. They need to ensure this is shut down on Open Table to avoid inconvenience

The service was very good. Regarding the food, it was overall good, however I ordered the scallops and when they brought it to me they had a strong smell and flavor of ammonia which is indicative of decomposition. I did mention it to the waitress who was very apologetic and did not charge us for the plate but it definitely wasn’t a very good Valentine’s Day dinner to say the least.
