I went here for lunch on a weekday with a large group. Not crowded at all.
The service was fine.
I had the Shrimp “El Cocotte”. It was ok. No one in my group was particular excited about their experience.
I didn’t dislike this restaurant but nothing really stood out and I believe it was overpriced for what we received.
I probably will not go back.

Where to start?

LOUD! the place is way too loud. hard surfaces everywhere. nothing to muffle sound. It was drafty, and cold. uncomfortable seating. Wine was served out of juice glasses. The bread was horrible (like a deli roll from a grocery store and put in the oven to dry out)... flakey. Very little that I thought sounded appealing from the menu so I asked the waiter to recommend an entre.. The appitiser oysters were ok, but I would have expected at least a wedge of lemon. The signature dish(recommended by server): Grits with shrimp was way too heavy. i ate only half of it and could not sleep that night - swimming in butter.

Where are the vegetables? no wonder america is obese.

So much for going with restraunt write ups from the SA Express Newspaper which gave it great reviews.... I disagree
