    Outstanding in all respects. The curried cauliflower soup was memorable and the salmon tartare should not be missed! There were 4 in our party and everyone was impressed.

    We recently returned to this restaurant after five years. We no longer live near Princeton but were there for an event and remembered how much we had liked the restaurant in the past. We left very disappointed. The issue was regarding a complaint about the food. We both shared the paella which was fine until we tasted the scallops. There was a distinct odor of ammonia. Since I am aware that this indicates the scallop is “off” and going bad which is not only unpleasant but a possible health hazard, I immediately told the waiter. We had pulled the scallops from the dish which we handed to him. He did the right thing and took them to the chef. He returned saying the chef said they were fresh, having been delivered today. The rest of the dish was fine so we continued to eat. I presumed that any other scallops would not be served but subsequently saw two other orders of paella ( with scallops) delivered to the table near us. I politely went over to the manager and told him that his scallops were spoiling and should not be served. His response was “I will take care of it “ and he did nothing. When the check came there was a “goodwill” discount of a value less than that of the paella. I told the waiter to inform the manager that I would pay for the food that wasn’t spoiled and tipped him on the entire amount. We left with no apology from the manager and I am sure he did not take us seriously. Hopefully no patrons got sick. We will not be returning to this restaurant which we used to like.
