The restaurant was very nice but a bit noisy. We had a 6:00 reservation. We sat at a table in the bar and it was quieter and very nice. The waiter/ bartender was nice and the chocolate martini was great! The mussels were excellent! Unfortunately even after telling them we had a show to get to at 7:30 and waiting over an hour for our entrees, we only got to taste one bite of our dinner and then take it to go as it came to us at 7:20 after getting the manager involved. He did not return to us or apologize or offer to make any adjustments to our bill and we had to run to get to our show across the street. From what we could tell, the food was good but the wait was excessive as we only ordered simple items. We were very disappointed but would like to give them another try to see if this their norm.
