   A fantastic afternoon tea experience, although for the price charged, we felt they could've included a small glass of Prosecco instead of offering that as an additional charge.

   Nice ambience and excellent service. My duck was nearly raw. Sent it back and it came back over cooked. Wiener schnitzel was way overcooked. Stuffed ravioli was under spiced. Chicken dish came so late that every one else was done with their meal (apparently the plate was dropped in the kitchen and the had to start over). Food had great presentation with nice ideas. Menu was interesting with just enough choices to make it pleasant and not overwhelming. Prices were reasonable. Service excellent with a friendly staff. They did comped us for the late chicken and offered a choice of desert. A nice move. If it wasn’t for he poor execution, it would have been a great experience.

   It was a great experience at Willie's. When we arrived, we were immediately given the choice of tables in different settings and once we picked one we were seated immediately. Service, from the very beginning was exceptional. We started with beverages and then ordered our meals. Starters in the meal were delivered quickly, and the staff checked on us multiple times to make sure we had everything we needed. Some of my friends avoid Willy's because of the high prices, but as a dining experience, I think it's great.

   The short ribs were tough and gritty. The carrots were not “al dente” as the waiter “explained” when I complained. I could not get a fork through my carrots. Basically raw. That’s not “al dente”, okay? Blanched at best. My husband’s flank steak was tastier. Our waiter was pleasant at first and then he basically disappeared and really was indifferent as to whether or not we were pleased with our meals. A young woman who came by our table provided better service. Not worth the price and if we were being really honest, we wouldn’t have left a tip. BTW - the woman who showed us to our table was very friendly and welcoming.
