*this is an updated review from the email I sent to Harry's Fine Foods*

I d been raving about this place and really wanted to take my out of town friends here. I ve been sending friends and clients here, love the space and the food. But my recent visit was extremely disappointing for a few reasons.

First, our drinks were served long after other patrons who arrived after us had received theirs. I understand that the bar, within our view, can get quite busy, but it was far too long. And in fact it appeared that our drinks sat on the bar waiting for our server to deliver them. Then there was the heirloom tomato salad, that was supposed to be served with peaches and nectarines, but didn t have either. We had noticed other patrons eating theirs with the stone fruits. It was weird. The garden salad had no Armenian cucumbers, I m a gardener and I grow them so I know what they look and taste like, and I gushed when I saw them on the menu. That minor change could have been noted to us when ordering, it wouldn t have been a big deal. One of my friends ordered the grilled cheese but requested it without the peppers, it came with the peppers. When we sent it back we thought it would be given priority and would come back quickly, it did not, she was nearly finished with her soup upon it s return. And it came with stone ground mustard, which was not on the menu. It should be noted because not everyone likes mustard.

After paying, and tipping 20%, we left, but I decided I needed to speak with the manager regarding our experience. I waited outside because it was busy indoors and I didn t want to be rude to other patrons. After waiting a bit he came out and I felt he was rather dismissive. In fact he claimed there were stone fruit on our salad, which I find completely unacceptable. He should have taken my feedback and believed what I was telling him as I was right there in front of him, not lying to him about our experience. I m insulted that he just brushed over everything.

With all that said the space is gorgeous and the trout was incredible.
