It's hard to believe that this restaurant came recommended! Really? By whom, I wonder? Bottom line, your hard-earned money is better spent elsewhere. We ended up here because it was the only place able to accommodate five of us at the last minute. That, in itself, should speak volumes, shouldn't it?
When I asked for dish recommendations, I was told everything is good - no specifics offered. Well, everything is not good. I had the Decatur Sandwich, which turned out to be exceptionally dry. Still, it wasn't as bad as my friend's meal, which arrived burnt to a crisp. Yikes indeed!
We ordered dessert mainly to placate the restless wait staff who seemed overly concerned about us occupying space. The time was only 9:30, the restaurant was starting to empty out, and we weren't past closing time. Besides, our reservation was at 8 and no server attended to us until 8:15.
As for the ice cream, it was completely frozen, with a distinct freezer-burned taste. We all tried it and were uniformly disappointed. I'm genuinely surprised by the high reviews this place has received, but it's no wonder we managed to get in without any wait time.
Personally, I won't be returning. The food is below average, and the service makes you feel as though your presence is an inconvenience. For superior dining options in Old Town, I'd recommend Hank's, Mia's, or Virtue Food and Grain, among others.
