I have been wanting to try this restaurant ever since it opened. What a disappointment! The service and ambiance was nice but in the end, only the food matters...and it did!! Butterfish special was described as "amazing" by the waiter...overcooked and pungent fishy odour instead. Steak was oversalted blasted with parsley and tasted braised, not on a skillet as described. Delivered rare, not medium-rare as requested. My friend could barely eat 2 bites and left the rest deciding not to return the entree. I tried it and agreed. Chicken ordered after fish sent away was tender but over-salted and greasy, somewhat bland even though the menu said "harissa" to be served with it. Overall, I will NEVER go back. I've had a better meal at Zuppa and District all nearby. In fact, I've had a better meal at a local diner than this place and the bill was 150 with tip!! I love going out to new restaurants all the time and trying new flavours but this place is to be avoided like the plague. Leave this for the bridge and tunnel crowd...they won't even know the difference!
Pros: ambiance
Cons: food...and that's 90% of what matters!!
