I ate at this restaurant with a group of 5 several weeks ago. It was not an enjoyable experience. I wasn't going to write a review but the evening keeps coming back to me so I thought I should share. The setting for this restaurant is outstanding and can be very romantic. It is an old brick kiln. Unfortunately, the... more
