It also did not include any beverages even non-alcoholic ones. The service was adequate, but bad we constantly had to re-ask for things over and over. Two of the four dishes had to be sent back for obsessive salt and old fish.  we have been going to this restaurant for years and I believe the quality of the food has definitely gone downhill. It would not be my recommendation.

Lobster Bisque and scallop appetizers were very tasty. i had the caesar salad (it was ok) my wife had the beet salad and she loved it. Main courses were the filet for my wife (which was perfectly done according to her request) and Sea Bass which i loved. Deserts were also very special. Service was timely and friendly without being too present. all in all a great New Year's Eve dinner well worth the money.

Unfortunately they didn’t acknowledge that it was my birthday despite including it in the OpenTable reservation. Also, I ordered a glass of Sauternes with dessert, which I never got.

We are slightly disappointed with our recent Christmas Eve service thought, it felt a bit rushed. I’m sure they were just expecting a lot of reservations but it kind of took away from the sparkle. Aside from that every course is so, so good. We will of course go back just maybe at a less busy time. Can’t wait to try the wine pairings. YUM.
