We came for dinner early on a blustery stormy night last week. We were one of the first parties seated in an empty dining room and were put in a very drafty place. A kind waiter told us that it was the coldest table in...the restaurant and suggested that we move (why were seated there to start with?). Despite being local I had not tried this restaurant in many years because of disappointing experiences. This was another one. I had the special salad which was supposed to be roasted pears and feta on local greens. The odd thing was the tiny slivers of pear were not only not roasted, they were not ripe and the feta tasted very odd. The duck however was very good. Another in our party had the grain bowl which he bought was just okay. Drinks were tasty. Overall the menu looked good but just doesn't deliver on expectations. We wish that the Charles had kept Bennedeto which was really excellent!More
