Review of Red Hat on the River

Location is beautiful. Love the coziness and views. The food was disappointing. I really wanted to love it and find a new favorite place. We ordered the heirloom tomato and mozzarella salad, tuna tartare and the duck confit to start. Cant go wrong with mozz an tomato, tuna tartare had zero flavor, duck confit was ok but the mustard sauce was what saved it. We also ordered a dirty martini and the cucumber muddled gin - not bad on the drinks.
At this point though I was a bit concerned about the entrees so I tried to go a bit safe and went with the braised lamb and the NY strip. The steak came medium well (ordered medium) and the braised lamb and risotto were very bland, lacked any flavor.
We wanted to experience it all so we ended with the creme brulee and cappuccinos. Prob best part of dinner. Overall I wouldn't return, I was sad I didn't love it.
