We sat down outside at 5pm and were served water immediately. Then no one came until 5:30. That was weird. I had to go look for someone to wait on... read more us. The waitress was in a deep conversation, probably work related, with the owner just inside the door. She saw me peek around and then asked if something was wrong. Weird thing to say since we'd been sitting there for 30 minutes. They weren't busy yet. So this all set the vibe with the waitress. The appetizer was delicious, the wine was great, the salads were okay. The entrees were average but the french fries were awful. Do not order the french fries. Soggy soggy soggy. 4 of us had drinks (1 each) entrees, salads and 2 desserts and with tip, the bill came to $290. Wouldn't go back but was a fun experience.
