text: This place has so much promise, but it fell short.  I had a Groupon I bought before I read the Yelp reviews.  Live and learn!\n\nI asked my server, who was quite good, what recommendation he would have between the 8 oz filet and the macadamia nut encrusted sea bass. He recommended the sea bass and that's what I ordered.  The plating was done nicely, but I do have a dislike for things piled on top of each other.  If I want my beans and potatoes mixed, I'll do it myself.\n\nA couple of things to note:  The macadamia nut crust was so finely chopped that it was impossible to get a taste of macadamia.  A little more coarse chop, please;  second, the fish was moist and tasty, but I don't think it was sea bass--at least like no other sea bass I've had.  It had more of a look, texture, and taste of haddock.  Was this a substitution?  Last, there was a bone in the fish.  Now I know, fish have bones.  But, for a moment I felt like Geoffrey Zakarian or Alex Guarnaschelli on Chopped and I wanted to turn up my nose and say the chef needed to be chopped.  Redeeming feature follows.\n\nThe dessert of Mud Pie was superb!  I should have had this for dinner and skipped the fish.  The chocolate ice cream with the cookie crumb crust was heavenly.  The other redemption came in the form of my server.  When informed I was using a Groupon, he told me approximately how much I had used and suggested ordering more to get the full value.  Now, that's service!\n\nI'm not sure if I'd return here.  I think I know now why the other places all had a lot of folks and this relatively large restaurant had few diners.
