We were there in a group of 4. Let us share our experience... From the reviews I've read from openrice, I've warned my friend that she would probably need to speak in English when she called to make reservation. And yes, the one who answered the call spoke English and was quite cold to pre-alert us of the dress code and was very negative when she requested for table by the window. Arghhhhhhhhh... On the contrary to the phone reservation experience, the reception was very polite and led us to our
On the contrary to the phone reservation experience, the reception was very polite and led us to our seat. We were given table by the window (though facing street ^-^). The waiters who attended to us did not insist on speaking English and were friendly and professional. One of them even share the cooking experience of sauteed mushrooms!! hahaha...
Come to the food. Fantastic! We had the following:-
3xlobster bisque 1xpumpkin soup - super duper
2xcrab cake - very fresh! 100% crabmeat! value for $$$
1xtuna sashimi - something different. I quite like it.
1x salad (couldn't remember what was it called) - not that impressive.
Now to the main course... :-
lamb rack - MUST TRY! very tender (though medium cooked) and ... it's just taste great!
boston lobster - fresh fresh fresh!!! It tastes well with the cheese/tomato toppings, spinach and the sauce.
salmon - my friend opted "well done" but the waiter recommended "medium well" so that meat would be too dry. And he was right!
crispy chicken - taste good too (though 1st taste was "meat was rough & dry")
We had 2 bottles of red wine and 2 bottles of still water. All these cost us $4950 (treat from my friend, yeah!) but we all enjoyed the food, wine, service and the ambience + washrooms.
I would not hesitate to go again but it would be for some special occasion..
