While the last time the first poster or I went, things were good. For the next two posters, things didn't sound good at all. So the question is: Are things hit and miss, or has this restaurant gone downhill since the first poster and myself went. I guess I might have to go back to find out if it, but I thank everyone for their comments. This seems to be one of the most viewed pages on my blog -- perhaps I should do restaurant reviews more than sports commentary :) -- and the more information for people the better.

The food was so bad I couldn't eat it. Calamari: Rubbery and cold Clam Chowder: This would have been ok, but I found my self chewing on shrimp tail's and shell's!! Whats with that. White Fish: Not well cleaned, not fresh and created a pool of oil on my plate. Sauteed veg. were hard, literally. Only part of the Mashed potato's were actually mashed. Not to mention the overall flavor of the dinner was poor. I went last night and for the first time in my life, I literally had to go get dinner after leaving! The food was so bad I couldn’t eat it.

It seems that the management of the restaurant assumes that the wonderful view can be a substitute for good service! You will have better service staff at any burger bar in town. While the food was good, the hostess was impolite, the bar tender slow, and the waitress simply stupid. If I pay about twenty dollars a person for my entree than I expect outstanding service.
