I wouldn't be so harsh on my review if this place wasn't a four star restaurant with a famous award winning chef. I expected a lot and was shocked at what was lacking. First, the restaurant had no daily specials. How does a restaurant of this caliber not have daily special entrees?? No fresh ingredients that was flown in for that week? No special entree that the Chef has created just for that day? Not a single special?? \n\nSecond, my friend had a steak and it was tough as hell. TOUGH. My jaw hurt eating it. It wasn't overcooked, it was literally the quality of the meat, or perhaps they didn't know to rest the meat afterwards. Whatever it was, the steak was horrible and a fifty dollar steak should never be like that. What a disappointment.\n\nThird, my mussels were not fresh. Unacceptable. \n\nIt wasn't all bad, the duck pate and the braised ribs got rave reviews, but other than that and the service, the food itself was disappointing. I refuse to believe that the chef has been anywhere near the restaurant in recent months. If he was, someone of his background would never serve meat of that quality.
