While I have eaten at this restaurant previously I have to say this time the food was disappointing. I ordered the post action crusted salmon with sweet potatoes fries and asparagus. The asparagus was limp and had a funny taste and I chose not to eat it. The salmon was a square which leads me to believe it was from a frozen box of salmon as the guy next to me ordered the same an hour later and got a filet. The salmon was over-cooked to the point of dried out. The sweet potatoes fries were fine. Had no spices or salt but were crispy. I ordered dessert it was good. The service was prompt and attentive. Think I will be finding other restaurants to meet at.
