We had dinner tonight after having a wonderful dinner 1 year ago. Tonight was a major disappointment. My $9 glass of wine was so tiny and the food unmemorable. Don't order the monkfish...total mess and tasteless. The Poke was good, but didn't have the "wow" factor that I remember. Also the crab cakes were meaty, but burnt. Last, I remembered the ice cream sundae being delicious...not so anymore. The coffee ice cream tasted like it had been in the freezer for a while. $85 later and still hungry we debated going next door to the Cactus Taqueria for chips and salsa...we didn't, but it was tempting. We won't go back.
Pros: cool interior
Cons: food, portions
