"My negative review was not for the restaurant, but for the Opentable reservation. I missed two very important dinner reservations even though I had email conformations from Opentable. I will now be calling to speak with the restaurants directly instead of using this feature."

"While the food is usually dependable with respect to both flavor and preparation, the same can't be said for the service.
Maybe I encountered a new staff member but the simplest of requests (food on one tab, liquor on another please or "may we have silverware?", seemed to fall on deaf ears. I'm not sure if it's the staggered delivery of the food to the table that keeps everyone running, but it seems like the staff may simply be overwhelmed and the details aren't cared for. If one thing starts to drag, the whole ship starts to sink. ie . even though we were there mid-week, a communication snafu between the kitchen and the waitstaff resulted in two of our 6 entrees being forgotten about. Sigh.....
Very good food, inconsistent ser"

"We were there for lunch during restaurant week with a group of 8. Service was good but our server was obviously not feeling well - she was very hoarse. It was difficult to hear her. Food was a little slow for those trying to get lunch during a work hour. The pizzas were good, I wouldn't say great but I am not an officianato of that style of pizza. I did enjoy the mushroom soup although a little salty."
