Amazing food,service and atmosphere. Definitely recommend this place.
This was not our first visit,,,but it will be our last. It was unbelievably bad actually. The beer was warm, the food was not edible, which we did tell the server,,she could have cared less,which she failed to remove from the table. We had to ask for the bill several times,and sit and look at the food we were unable to eat. One thing you cannot take away from the place is the atmosphere, to sit right beside the canal. I would not return for free food...............
Took friends from out of town and was embarrassed by our choice...ordered Bloody Marys and no one could taste the vodka...confirmed with the young waitress that they were not virgin Bloody Marys so asked for a jigger of vodka to top up our drinks...tasted the 'pure' vodka in the jigger and it was like water...and they still charged us for alcohol! Disppointing, tired food - too much cream and not enough real taste...never again.
I've been here a few times now, and the sad fact is that other than the location, this place has nothing much to offer. Its a pity too, because the location truly is spectacular - the only way you could eat closer to the water is if you were on a boat. Unfortunately, thats about all the place has to offer, and as such, it doesn't have much more going for it than, say, a bench that also happens to be on the banks of the canal. My penne jambalaya was tiny (I could literally count the number of penne noodles) and unbelievably soupy. Like, when I was done fishing the meat and noodles out, there was at least an inch and a half of sauce left in the bowl. And not rich, thick sauce, but watery. Too watery, in fact, to actually stick to the noodles or meat that I fished out. My wife had a wild mushroom ravioli with "cream sauce" which, according to here, was probably cream and not much else, as it was completely bland. The service was what I would call "par". Nothing special, but nothing terrible either. So in that, I guess it fits with the rest of the experience - mediocre. In other words..... meh.
After bring seated, it was 15 minutes before anyone came to take a drink order. My husband ordered a draft beer, which was flat. I ordered a margarita on the rocks, and when I tasted it, I sent it back. It tasted horrible; I mentioned to the server that it tasted milky. She went and asked the bartender, who apparenly put cream in it. Not sure what recipe book she read, but last time I checked, there was no cream in a margarita. Food came out on old, ugly white diner plates, and it was no good - they used "fake" (ie. from a can) parmesan cheese on the bruschetta, and the antipasto consisted of a few slices of rolled up salami, vinegar soaked julienne carrots, and an unripe tomato with bottled pesto on top. Bad service, bad drinks, bad food, good location. Location is all that keeps this place open.
