text: I and a friend dined here tonight, following the suggestion of a friend who said it was outstanding.  It isn't.  Though it starts off well with the perfunctory greetings, it went downhill.  The wine sommelier had a hard time opening the wine we brought.  My soup arrived at barely above room temperature.  Our entrees took FOREVER to arrive, and once again, mine was barely above room temperature.  The waiter, to his credit, did apologize for the delay in getting the food out to us.  And he did so twice.  That was a bad sign when he had to inform us twice.  The manager tried to make it up with bring out desserts and dessert wine.  I just don't like sweets.  For the wine we brought, the restaurant did comp the corkage fee, and the desserts and dessert wine (which were unwanted) were also comp'ed.  I will NOT go back to this place.
