THE WORST DINNER OF MY LIFE!!!!
My Boyfriend and I went here for a Valentine's dinner. When we made the reservations, they failed to tell us that they were serving a limited menu of either beef short ribs or fish of some unmemorable type. All the food was made well ahead of time and kept warm so nothing was off the grill. The soup was an abomination of some unknown concoction with a prawn stuck in it for God only knows why. This prawn was whole, frozen, thawed, dipped in batter (even the eyes were in pasty batter, staring at you) and chewy, they must have bought it by the box from as Asain market off of Clairmont Mesa Blvd. The salad was made of (get this) endive. Endive is very, very bitter and it was so small. Then they served this ridiculous little spoons of something like butter with salmon in it. It tasted like old refigerated margerine. This dinner came at the insulting price of $75 per plate. Now for that much money I would expect prime rib, or filet migon, or anything but a cheap cut of beef like short ribs or local sea bass.
WHAT A RIP OFF. We were no way warned that we would not be ordering from the regular menu and they really took advantage of it. I will NEVER go there again. Talk about taking advantage of the consumer.
