I was very disappointed in the service and reception. I cannot comment on the food, though it was recommended highly by friends, because we never had a chance to order. I had a party of 5 and did not have a reservation. After a nice stroll along the River Walk we decided to stop in to have a relaxing dinner We arrived at 4:45. We were asked if we had made a reservation in which we replied no. We were then told that there would be a 30 to 40 minute wait in which we replied that this was acceptable. I looked over the restaurant only to find that all tables were empty and that there were only 6 people waiting to be seated. Now I understand that the restaurant opened at 5pm but we decided to wait out the 40 minutes. Meanwhile there were many tables open during our wait and the only table that served 6 was left open the entire time. After waiting 45 minutes we asked the hostess how much longer for our table and she replied to what I perceived as condescending, that she was not sure. I then looked around at a half seated restaurant and we all decided to leave very frustrated and hungry. Would I recommend this establishment to others? The clear answer is no.

Ownership, no need to respond. We were with the people that recommended your restaurant and they were equally frustrated and were turned off by the experience and said that they would never return.
