Ambiance: the place is dark, the entrance is narrow and awkward and our table sat on top of a dip, so my chair kept wobbling back and forth. Bathrooms don't need a TV, people. Also, the 1980s elevator/shopping channel music needs to go like yesterday.
Service: big sigh. Our very shaggy haired waiter was a nice kid, but he was just kind of a mess. First of all, please learn to enunciate your words. It's loud and he mumbled and we struggled hard. Secondly, please don't touch and/or pick up patrons' plates of unfinished food AND THEN ask if you can take it away. You've already touched it, and you clearly already made that decision for me...and also, please actually pick up dirty, finished plates when you see them. He spent a lot of his time at a table of his school peers across from us. Nice kid, but needs better understanding of social cues and rules.
Food: maybe this is a West coast thing but lobster bisque shouldn't look like minestrone soup. It's just pureed lobster and maybe crumbled lobster, shrimp or other seafood relevant to this bisque. Taste was fine, though. My "blackened chicken Alfredo" was cute in that it was weird, bland, and white chicken slices with a sprinkle of paprika and LOADS of nutmeg in the sauce. Not bad, just nutmeg happy. My friend felt her Alfredo was different from what she's previously ordered from them before (via Ubereats). Bread was dry but rosemary flavor was nice. My Italian cream soda was super bland.
Olive Garden is better, tbh, but it's not horrible if you end up eating here.
