We went here for a date night last night after months of wanting to go there. We had heard many great things about this place and ended up being very disappointed. We were very disappointed with our food. First off, even though we had made reservations, we did not get a window seat we asked for and the hostess said there were no seats available. For appetizers we ordered the smoked salmon spread. It was not very appetizing at all, and we both love smoked salmon. It ended up being taken off of our bill. Also ordered the Caesar salad which had way too much dressing with old salad. For dinner we ordered the ribs with Cole slaw, sweet potato fries, and Mac and cheese. They gave us obviously burned fries so we had to ask for new ones, which never came. The Cole slaw looked and tasted horrible. Even the Mac and cheese was terrible. The ribs weren't very appetizing at all either. We asked for less sauce, and it was so sweet and had too much sauce on. We Also ordered the filet mignon that comes with mashed potatoes and asparagus. We had received the wrong order from the waiter, and then when I got my order, it was over cooked and very over seasoned and dry, it tasted like cheap beef jerkey. The potatoes were way too salty and so was the asparagus. We didn't even eat the steak or potatoes, and the waiter didn't even bother to ask what was wrong with it. Very disappointed with the $45 steak that is supposedly one of Simon and seafort's specialties. When commenting to the waiter about our experience, he talked to his manager and they offered to buy back the steak from us and offered free dessert on the house, which we both declined. He also told us to write a review online. Having already paid for our dinner and wanting to leave, we did not want to accept their offer of buying back the steak. Overall, we were very disappointed with the quality of food and the service. We would not recommend going here, we paid too much for terrible food. And we will not be trying the restaurant again.
