We decided to splurge for our anniversary. I've been here a few times for work meetings, and the food had always been tasty. We made a reservation, letting them know it was our anniversary, and when we arrived we asked for a quiet table. We were seated directly in front of the kitchen and were treated to the rattling of dishes and silverware being put away and large carts rolling by. We started with the honey fried cauliflower, which was very good. As we were waiting (a very long time!) for our entrees, I told my husband I'd never had a bad dish here. And then our entrees came. He had the catfish, which was unique and enjoyable. I had the vegetable paella. The presentation was quite lovely, but then I took a bite. It tasted like dirty dishwater, and was overcooked to the point where everything was complete mush. I tried another bite, but it was so unpleasant I decided I'd rather not eat it. My husband agreed it was not something he'd want to eat. At most restaurants, you'd expect to see your server come back to check on you soon after delivering your food, but this was not the case. My husband finished his entire meal and the busboy came to take away his plate. Then we waited a while longer before our waitress came back. She saw my mostly untouched meal and asked if I wanted a box. I told her that the meal was actually not very good at all, and I did not want to take it home. At this point she asked if I wanted something else instead, so I asked for the barbecue chicken. We again waited a very long time for the food to arrive (at least she brought us a few rolls so I could snack on something while we waited). The chicken was fine, but nothing special. I expected to perhaps get a visit from the manager or something, but that never happened. After the appetizer and rolls, I wasn't terribly hungry, so it didn't take me long to be ready to leave (especially since we'd been there almost 2 hours at this point due to the slow service). We again had to wait for our waitress to come back so we could get the bill and leave. She brought the bill and it had all 3 entrees on it, and then she claimed she must have forgotten to take the one off. They do have some interesting food, and some of it is very good, but the service was absolutely terrible and it really put a damper on our anniversary celebration. I would be hard pressed to recommend anybody come here.
