The food was a bit expensive. Our total came to about $100 for two people, and that was with only non-alcoholic drinks. I ordered the chicken piccata which was an average sized portion, there was just nothing particularly memorable about it. For that price, I expected something more impressive in either quality or creativity.
Our waiter, Damian, was excellent. He was warm, professional, and made us feel well taken care of throughout the entire meal. He checked in at the right times, kept a friendly attitude, all of which made the experience enjoyable.
Unfortunately, the hostess gave off the opposite energy. When we walked in, she barely acknowledged us. There was no greeting or eye contact. She quietly grabbed two menus, led us to a table, placed the menus down, and walked away. It felt awkward and unwelcoming, almost like we were bothering her just by showing up.
I also noticed how she treated the guests at the table next to us. They politely asked if they could sit further inside the restaurant. She quickly said no, and when they asked why, she gave a vague response about it being policy. Her tone was cold and uninterested, and it came across as dismissive rather than helpful. It was clear she didn’t want to be there and wasn’t trying to create a positive first impression.
Overall, the food was okay but overpriced for what we got. The service from Damian was the best part of the night and made the experience better. However, the poor attitude from the hostess really took away from the atmosphere and left us with a mixed impression.
