   For a few reasons, I wouldn't return. First, the entrees arrived while we were only halfway through the appetizer. When I asked the server to bring the entrees back after we finished the appetizer, he initially refused saying the entrees were already prepared. After my insistence, he agreed. I think the entrees we later received were the same ones that had been sitting around. The entrees themselves were quite large and tasty. However, my dish, cioppino, was very salty. Another issue - when the bill came, the suggested tipping options were 20%, 22%, and 25%. I feel it wrong for restaurants not to offer 18% as a starting point. In this case, even tipping 18% after the issue with the rushed meal delivery seemed high. To add insult to injury, the suggested tips were calculated on the after-tax amount. I don't see adding tax as a 'service' and thus don't understand why restaurants expect patrons to give the server a tip on the tax paid.

   Slow and distracted server. Another server stepped in to help out after a long wait to order. Appetizers came promptly but Entrees were slow to be delivered. Once dinner was over, long waiter for server to return to pay out bill. Long, dragged out experience. Food was really good but at this price point I expect the service would be much better.

   We dined on MLK Day - brunch buffet was deeelish! Everyone in our party thoroughly enjoyed their meal. The buffet was well stocked with all of the offerings for the entire 2 plus hours we were there. Glad to have a warm place to eat a great meal on such a freezing cold day!

    We've been to this restaurant numerous times and have not been disappointed with the food! However, our service was relatively slow this time around. We did have to wait a few minutes for the rest of our party to join us, but it seemed that we had to flag down our server to put in drink orders and food orders after our appetizer. The food was wonderful ( amazing mussels!) and the service itself was great - just a bit slow. We'll definitely be back and look forward to another great meal.
