Not sure how the restaurant stays alive. My entree arrived before my appetizer. When maitre d was questioned, he simply said, "don't worry and just enjoy the food." The food was good, but our entire meal was a mishap. The worst was the host's meal was served to an adjoining empty table while she was left with no food. Puzzling especially at these prices. Applebees beats them hands down in service.

    Lovely, warm decor and a charming terrace on the marina. Valet parking. Some tables can feel cramped, especially the row of 2 person tables. Food is very nice. One of the few exceptions in Greenwich where the high price may be justified. I've had meats & fish here, and have tried most things on the menu. You can't go wrong with anything. The bar is a true middle-aged meat bar and quite popular after office hours. Bizarrely, service is horrendous.

  • We were there for lunch on a Sunday. We frequent the restaurant. The food is great--perfectly prepared. Friendly, attentive, knowledgeable bartender. We typically always eat in the bar. In the past month the service has been very poor. One waitress for the entire bar area and not a good one, at that. In fact, over the long term, service has been inconsistent--not up to the otherwise fine standards of this restaurant

    New Year's Eve and we loved it! Ate early, but the food was deicious, with perfect presentation and portions, and excellently serviced. Decor, though low-key, was just right (I loved the chandeliers.) All in all - a perfect score - except that it was a bit pricey. The cost above reflects one appetizer, entre, dessert and coffee each, but no drinks.

    Over rated and over priced. The food was good, served by friendly waiters (no attitude) but not ready for prime time.
