text: They say, you can never go home, or go back. Well, I've never bought into that. \n\nOver the years, we've been in almost a dozen or so Chart Houses. Sadly, many have closed due to whatever corporate reorg was going on at the time. I miss the ones in Steamboat and Newport, RI the most. Great locations and views. \n\nSo it was with some excitement that we made reservations here for Easter Sunday dinner. Surprisingly, we have never been to this location.\n\nWe arrived a few minutes before six and found our hostess in a middle of a hiccups fit. I offered to frighten her but she decline. I guess I was scary enough. LOL\n\nThere was also some confusion over our reservations, but it didn't last long. We were escorted to our table, over by the window with a magnificent view of the lake. You got to give Chart House credit for choosing some great locations!\n\nWe started with a glass of Merlot and Pinot each. Both were very good for house wines. We also opted for the salads, the warm bacon dressing was delicious, as was the Caesar.\n\nThings started slowly declining from here. I asked about getting their Callahan Prime Rib End Cut ($33.99). Seems the kitchen couldn't make up their minds if they had one. \n\nFirst it was no, then yes and finally surprise, they delivered a regular cut. It was tasteless with no flavor at all. When we were paying I mentioned it to our server, all they could say was, \"oh yeah.\"  Grrr. LOL. The other entree was their Beef Tenderloin Medallions ($31.99) which was very good. \n\n\nFor dessert, we ordered the Chocolate Lava Cake to share with some coffee. It came damaged and somewhat of a mess. LOL. See our photo, versus the Chart House one. Our waiter apologized saying they should have been picked it up sooner. (Okay, why didn't you bring us another one?). \n\nThe current owners of Chart House is Landry, a very classy and sharp organization.  I would suggest they work on this location before they need to close this one too. \n\nOur bill, including two glasses of wine ran us $80.00 a person, including taxes and gratuities. \n\nNow why didn't we go to Capital Grill I wonder?  Well, maybe next time.\n\nFor a positive review of a Chart House, I call your attention to my friend Norm's recent experience in Las Vegas. http://www.yelp.com/biz/forte-european-tapas-bar-and-bistro-las-vegas?hrid=Gpo-2lh59Bru8sKqgRm5Hw
