   Took a little while to actually order our meal but once we ordered our meal it was delicious. Smaller on the portion size for the Christmas menu but was delicious!!! Our wait staff that was 2 really great young women and two young men that helped serve and clean plates on the 2nd floor that were fantastic!!!!

   We waited 30 minutes for water, then after our first course we waited almost 2 hours for our main meal. Everything came out cold, and the food was relatively bland. In total we were there for almost 3 and a half hours for three courses. It was the worst service I’ve ever experienced. Our waiter seemed to be actively avoiding us. An unfortunate Christmas meal. We were comped on the meal, so I appreciate the manager for that, but this was a very poor experience.

   The holidays are a hard time for any restaurant. Tujague included. We waited 15-20 minutes for a table despite having a reservation. The following is about their prefix Christmas Day menu: Our salads with radicchio had no radicchio and had mixed greens instead. The gumbo was watery. The short rib was over cooked, the pork was not good and the fish was full of bones (also the portion was tiny compared to everything else). Oh and the bread pudding was hard and flavorless. No one in our table and even our whole floor managed to eat more than half of it. The vibe was: there is the food, do whatever you want with it, like it or not, who cares. I will say our server was kind but overwhelmed and scattered.

   Gumbo was roux only and lacked any noticeable meat of any kind. The short rib seemed as if it was left under a heating lamp for too long. Service was beyond subpar. I will give them the benefit of the doubt and blame it on the holidays. I’ve really enjoyed this place in the past.

   Our waiter was very nice. The restaurant was a little chaotic- mix ups with people’s reservations and our food order. The food was good but not what we expected for the price.

   The food was delicious and the environment was relaxing. However, service was incredibly slow. Several tables that were seated after us were served first. Further, none of the waitresses seemed to be able to answer questions about the menu. Be prepared to spend two and a half hours in the dining room.

   Unfortunately our family Christmas meal was ruined by a wait person who brought us the wrong meal twice, dropped silverware on my daughter and not asking everyone at the table for drinks. In addition, no one asked if we wanted refills on drinks and the service was extremely slow.

   The fish was bland and under seasoned. Waiting staff was unsure which waiter was designated to our table. Members of our party were tasked with “flagging down” someone passing by to order drinks, remind them of our drink order, and to order entrees. Very disappointed we spent our family Christmas dinner here.

   We had a very average experience at this restaurant on Christmas Day. We had the set menu with the wine pairing and do not feel like it was good value for money. The food was average particularly the salad for the first course was overly basic. The waiter was lovely but it seems that they were understaffed so we didn’t receive great service. I don’t mind spending good money on good food and service, but really don’t feel like we had good value for money on this experience. Feeling a bit disappointed noting it was our Christmas lunch.

    Food was just ok. Had pork shank and seemed very bland to me. Gumbo was outstanding! Service was not great. Had to ask for salt and pepper. Had to ask for drink refills. Was given wrong menu initially. Seating was at a very small table among many large tables. Will not return.
