Zengo

The Angry Zengo from Zengo was listed as a top 100 must eat in Denver Mag, so I ordered it. Here's what I thought:

It?s ?angry? due to the heat: Spicy yellowfin tuna inside and a sprinkle of wasabi tobiko on top. A little bit of avocado and flavored mayo are there to settle things down, though, and it all results in a pretty decent tasting combination. But pretty decent is not the best that Zengo has to offer. Their Won Ton Tacos and Soft Shell Crab apps are two of the better bites anywhere in the city, making my list of must-eats all day over the Angry Zengo.

Pros: spicy but balanced

Cons: just good

If, to you, a great restaurant is simply cool decorations and ambiance, a youngish staff, and bass heavy music, then Zengo is as good as they come.

If you are looking for GREAT food and GREAT service you are barking up the wrong tree. I have now been to Zengo twice for dinner and I have been twice disappointed. This place is certainly unique in Denver..... not least because rude, pretentiousness does not attract Denverites the way it might attract say ....a Manhattanite. We want quality.... not mediocrity wrapped in a pretty package.

You can get well made drinks most anywhere in town..... and this place has relatively mediocre food. If you think going to this kind of overpriced ambiance spot makes you hip, trendy, or cool.... well you've got a lot to learn about cool.

Pros: Solid Drinks

Cons: Impatient Rude Service

Posted 09/24/09

Went there recently for dinner with friends I have been there before and had a fine time but it has been awhile so I'm guessing they have new staff. The hostess first off was rude and unfriendly, the manager should remind her that this is a customer based service and she should act appropriatly. So starting off our experience was bad due to her horrible attitude. Then the waiter wasn't nice at all. We all felt as if we were taking time out of their lives and it was a burden to wait on us. The place was empty so being overwhelemed was not the reason. Overall, the food and drinks are good but the horrible service takes the cake. There are far better places in Denver such as Samba Room or North with better customer service that I will visit instead.
Manager, ask your staff to check their attitudes at the door.

Pros: Trendy environment

Cons: Hostess and waitstaff

Been in for dinner before (love it!!) but stumbled upon their happy hour while stopping in for a beer after a day in the park. You have to sit in the lounge or bar but the lounge is super comfy (we couldn't get a seat @ the bar- apparently some people have caught on). We had a selection of mojitos and little appetizer sushi each for $5!! They also have other $5 apps and chorizo tacos, a bit more expensive but they are to die for. Going back next week with all the girls.

Pros: $5 happy hour menu

Cons: Only until 6:30....get there @ 5:00

Posted 03/30/09

Worst Valentine's Day Menu Ever and the most impersonal service ever the cocktail waitress in the lounge was friendly and outgoing but the dinner service was not worth the money......

Pros: complimentary valet .

Cons: robotic service

Posted 02/14/09

So my girls and i like to have our girls nights and this is the perfect spot for some good drinks, good food and a great vibe. Location is great also!

Posted 12/02/08

This place is beautiful! Unfortunately Asian and Latin dont mix...at least not here. It may have had a chance if it were in a high traffic area catering to tourists that dont know any better, but when your'e tucked away in Denver with no foot traffic, word of mouth is BIG. And my mouth says NO!

Pros: Happy hour

Cons: not worth $$$$$

Posted 11/30/08

A friend took us here for the first time and the overall experience was great. Our server was very attentive and made sure we had clean plates for all of our various entrees as we ordered several items off the menu. The mojitos were refreshing and unique, the food exceeded our expectations. All of the food we ordered was inventive and creative as well as delicious from the calamari, lobster dumplings to the pork tenderloin and the black cod, everything was made to perfection. We also enjoyed our dessert in the lounge where we enjoyed more cocktails as well. The dessert coffee they offer is wonderful, the scent of it alone lures you in. The chocolate ancho chili cake was creative and unique and satisfies any sweet tooth. We loved our experience here so much we took our mom here for her birthday dinner a few weeks later and received the same great service and the same delicious food. The food and drink prices are expensive, but the food and service was worth it. I definitely recommend this place for special occasions.

Pros: Unique and creative menu

Cons: Can be pricy

Posted 08/23/08

My husband and I went for our anniversary and it was WONDERFUL. The best California rolls and Calamari in town. Would recommend this for anyone and a great place for drinks.

Pros: valet parking

Cons: music is a bit loud

Posted 06/24/08

Zengo's Restaurant draws a sophisticated crowd. Enjoy Mojitos and apps. on the patio as the sun drops down behind the Rockies. Infront, lies a green lush park for a picturesque setting. It is a place to show your stuff and people watch too.

Drink, laugh, talk it up while enjoying a pan-asian cuisine at posh place. The staff are fun friendly local Denverites, they will get you whatever you need, just ask. Staff checks in with you continuously to asure that you are satisfied.

Been here many times over the years and have made plans to go here for special occasions. It is just a nice place to start with drinks and apps outside, or eat inside it's chic too.

Additionally, WALKING DISTANCE off 16th st. mall (or cheap cab fare) from downtown bars, breweries and everything else entertaining. Go.

My boyfriend and I had dinner at Zengo last night before the Av's game and I absolutely loved it! Thank god we finally have something unique in Denver, definitely not your typical restaurant. We didn't get entrees, we shared a bunch of smaller dishes; the hamachi is amazing, the empanadas are suprisingly good, and we also had a mahi mahi taco special that was super tasty. I didn't totally love the table we seated at, you're a little close to your neighbor but the drinks and food definitely made up for it. We had mojitos which were delicious but did take a bit, probably because of the Av's game, it was really busy , I would make a reservation just to be on the safe side.

Pros: Atmosphere, drinks, shareable dishes

Cons: Crowded dining room

Posted 04/15/08

We wanted to try this unique-sounding restaurant during my R&R from deployment - sorry to say I wasted my time and money here. The service was unacceptable - the hostess was rude, our server was abrupt, and took far too long to receive our sushi. All servers and waitstaff were unnecessarily snooty. Food selection was limited, and entirely overpriced. We ordered sushi, which was below average in taste, considering the prices charged and the portions offered. We left before ordering an entree, due to the poor service and low quality of food, and continued our meal at Chedd's (which I highly recommend).

Posted 03/21/08

Hip - yes; food - average; service - waitress was good - the others were horrible.
It was Sunday, the place was about 1/4 full & they couldn't get us out of there fast enough.
They were taking away dishes before we had even finished.
The cost is very high - spend your money some place other than here.

Virtually any choice from the menu will be a good one. The menu will please almost anyone and the drink choices are excellent. The bar area is nice for drinks and Riverfront Park across the street makes the area great for a post-dinner walk.

Pros: Food Quality and Neighborhood

Cons: Cost

Posted 02/17/08

We went to Zengo with friends essentially because it is supposed to be rather "hip." Well, it is that...but that is pretty much all it was. We were seated promptly but after that things went down hill. The service was slow, the waitress was preoccupied. The ahi tacos that I heard were phenomenal....not even the best I've had in the midwest. The drinks were alright but slow in coming. None of us were impressed with the appetizers and only one in four enjoyed there entree. The consensus was "average" on the food. And for the quality, it's certainly not inexpensive.

If you are searching for something "different" like we were, search elsewhere.

Posted 02/03/08

I was a little skeptic heading to Zengo and wasnt sure how the ambitious latin-asian menu would pan out - but our meal was delicious! We started with cocktails at the bar. It was a Thursday night and pretty crowded but service was prompt and we ordered the recommended mojitos. I was happy with the flavor and presentation. When we sat down for dinner our server explained that the menu was designed for sharing - this isnt usually my style but I thought sharing went very well with the food. We tried all sorts of dishes, from sushi rolls to churrasco steak - everything was tasty and great for sharing. I also noticed very different crowds throughout the restaurant - lots of beautiful people at the bar and lounge but also many sophisticated diners in the dining room. I would definitely head to Zengo if you're looking for high end food in a fun setting.

Posted 01/13/08

After visting the bar area in the past and reading the reviews on this site, I was excited for my first trip to Zengo for dinner. Unfortunately I left a little disappointed and feeling like there was really no need for me to bother eating there again. We had a reservation so the hostess took us immediately to our table after greeting us and offering to take our coats. If there's one thing I must give Zengo credit for, it's the atmosphere they have created inside the restaurant. The space is absolutely beautiful with a sort of a hip, loungy feel although at times the dance club-esque "uhn tiss" music was a bit much for me. Our waitress, who was friendly enough, came by and recommended a sake that turned out to be fantastic, then took our orders. For our appetizer we chose the mariscos ceviche. It turned out to be pretty much like everything else food-wise that evening; fairly tastey and sort of interesting, but always stopping just short of really good or great with too many flavors all muddled together not allowing any one aspect of the dish to really shine. We hadn't even finished the appetizer when the waitress came to our table, exclaimed that our dinners were ready, and promptly removed our still-unfinished starter. For the main course I ordered the tandoori chicken. What I got were three very small pieces of rather bland chicken served over some mushy naan with a couple of unremarkable dipping sauces and some plain, hard black beans on the side. My date ordered the lamb shank, which while a little better overall was still lacking in my opinion and had an off taste as though the spice combination didn't really work out as intended. The waitress then brought out the dessert menu before my date had even finished her main, although we declined as nothing on it looked that good and everything else that evening had been subpar. In the end, give this place a shot, but it seems to me like they tend to strive too much for style over really good food.

Pros: beautiful interior, complimentary valet, fun drink menu

Cons: hurried service, food tries too hard to be "different" at the expense of flavor and quality

Posted 01/06/08

I visited Zengo last thursday night and wow! The specialty drinks were off the charts especially the kimono kiss and tropical mojito! Our service was prompt and knowledgeable recomending fabulous apps to divine entrees. My favorites were the empanadas with a mango curry salsa and the Salmon entree wich burst with the flavors of South America! My fiance and I were suprised at the end by a complimentary birthday dessert wich our server must have overheard us discussing. It is rare to see staff take such pride and profession in what they do! A+++

Pros: Best waitstaff in town!

Cons: make reservations for the weekends! Hot spot!

Posted 11/26/07

Recently my fiance and I dined @ Zengo. We are from out of town but heard a great deal about the restaurant. We eat out at alot of great restaurants and this was not one of them. When we arrived we were seated promptly, our server took our drink orders and then came back and toook an appetizer order. I was shocked to see the food come out before our drinks, which she did apologize for, although we got through 2 sushi rolls before they showed up. The server said that they were known for there mojito's, average at best. On to the next course, Mahi Mahi ceviche that claims to have habenero, and pineapple, and all I could taste was pineapple. I also ordered the foie gras w/ a oxtail marmalade and corn fritter, the foie gras was burned on the outside and way under cooked on the inside, the fritter was a mini corn muffin that was way over done and dry and the marmalade was way to sweet to taste anything else. We also had soft shelled crab tacos that were under seasoned and bland. Our last course we had the lobster potstickers and duck spring rolls. The potstickers were the one refreshing bite that we had all night other than my glass of rioja. The duck spring rolls were mediocre and I would put money on the fact they use canned sweet chile sauce and can't make there own. This is spoke by someone in the restaurant business and for a restaurant to charge the kind of money they are, and to put out that kind of food is embarrassing for the restaurant and the patrons that go there. It is just "average food and service at best" and would not be one that I would return to.

Pros: Go there to be seen

Cons: Terrible Food

Posted 09/03/07

It's very passe' to pay so much for so little. This place is shall we say very 2007. That's over, people want and demand value and quality. It's a shame because we need a decent neighborhood restaurant in Riverfront. Best bet is still to go to Lodo instead.

Wait staff are filled with attitude not a passion for service.

The big down side is the throbbing disco music they play way too loud. Also, it's located on Little Raven which makes it a little loud if you sit on the patio.

Pros: Fried Rice but it's salty

Cons: Music too loud, food oily and salty. $$$$$$$

Posted 08/17/07

Went to Zengo about a month ago and loved it. The ambience is amazing. The crowd is young and hip. Overall a trendy little restaurant in the Riverfront area. We ordered the margaritas which were great, they have a wide selection of tequilas to choose from. We started out with the calamari, shared a sushi roll and had the prawn and the black cod as our main dishes. All of the dishes were great. I would recommend this place for anyone who is looking for a hip restaurant and isn't afraid to experiment new eclectic dishes.

Pros: Ambience and Food

Cons: There may be a wait on the weekends

Posted 06/21/07

I have been to Zengos many times but unfortunately their service has gone down hill. We were there for a friends birthday and and about 20 people with us. the wait staff was rude and slow. we had all ordered different apps but she combined them throughout the table but never let us know. so we sat there waiting for our food to find out later it was on another plate but by the time we realized that it was 1/2 gone so we asked for another one to share with ourgroup and she acted put out and was just rude throughout the night as well as slow. The food is good but not that good way to much competition to have this kind of service...we won't be going back.

Pros: Food

Cons: Service

Posted 05/19/07

My wife and I frequent Zengo about 3 times a month. On a recent visit were we were served by the Sommelier for the company, who apparently moonlights as a server a couple times a week. We were informed that the wine list had recently gone an overhaul and spent some time with the Sommelier learning of the new selections. In the end the Sommelier paired a wine by the glass a later a wine by the bottle perfectly with our apps and dinner. After looking over the list ourselves, we were happy to see that someone in Denver is finally offering great wine at a reasonable price. Zengo is the place to go if you are looking for excellent food and wine. Our experience was great and we will definently be back.

Pros: Wine list, free valet, food, ambience

Cons: on busy nights, the food can take a little while

Posted 04/06/07

We used to love this place but lately the service is not what it used to be. We've had a bad experience with the service last year so for my husband's birthday I called and asked to speak to the manager explaining him that we were coming for a special occasion and that we were bringing a couple of friends who had never been to the restaurant. We waited for 45 minutes to be seated eventhough the manager had greeted us. During the course of our meal I saw the waiters bringing a special plate with a lighted candle for what it obviously was a birthday celebration. I was expecting the same treatment for my husband, but when our waiter came with the regular dessert menu, I realized that again the manager had totally forgotten about us. I inquired if it was possible for my husband to have the same treatment and he said: of course! you should have told me in advance.

Posted 01/30/07

I read some of the reviews on here and I was hesitant to try Zengo but friends kept insisting I give it a go. My wife and I made reservations, were seated promptly and our drinks did NOT take 10 minutes to arrive even though for a Thursday the place was jam-packed. Yes, the seats are close together, but the service was top notch. The drinks were amazing, the food even better...like tiny explosions of flavor in your mouth! This is by far the best meal I have had in Denver to date. For the people that complain, maybe this trendy spot isn't exactly your scene. The timing of our plates was perfect, the sever helped us in the amount to order and she was incredibly knowledgable about each dish. Anyone interested in trying Zengo, give it a whirl and don't be discouraged by the comments here...we couldn't have left any happier. Be sure to try the XO style edemame, the empanadas and the amazing short ribs when you go! P.S. There is complementary valet parking...no need to worry about finding a spot on the street.

Posted 12/13/06

Unless you're at the bar, the service can be painful. The atmosphere and drinks are the best part of this restaurant. I would recommend to go there for drinks after work, or as a pre-dinner gathering, but if you planning to stay there for dinner, make sure you have reservations and be willing to wait at least 30 mins before you get seated.

Pros: Great drinks, good food

Cons: Sevice

Posted 11/23/06

I used to LOVE this place and I would always take out-of-town guests here when visiting. My boyfriend was in town and we made 9pm dinner reservations on Friday at Zengo, with another couple who had never been to the restaurant. We were not seated until almost 9:30, and no one came to take our drink order until almost 9:45. It had been about 8 months since I had last been to Zengo, and their menu had changed drastically. While everything we ordered was tasty, the food was a bit over-priced for what you got, and the menu no longer contained the unique selections which really set Zengo apart. It then took about another 20 minutes for us to receive our bill once we were finished eating. I would definitely recommend Zengo for drinks, because they really have a great atmosphere, but it was a less than pleasant dining experience. I was upset that I chose it for dinner for my out-of-town guest.

Pros: Atmosphere

Cons: Service

Posted 11/06/06

Loved this place. I definitely recommend. Everything on the menu sounded good. I need to go back to try more.

Posted 11/05/06

I went last night and the "free" happy hour treat was so could. The cucumber mojitos were tasty as well. A great Happy Hour find!

Posted 10/30/06

I was out to CO on business, the restaurant was recommended by a friend. The timing on the dishes was lousy. The server brought out our edamame last, I thought it was supposed to be first. Then, everything came all at once. We encountered a problem with our bill and it took FOREVER for the server to resolve. It was as if there wasn't a manager on site. I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone or give it another chance.

Pros: Food was ok

Cons: Too loud, too unorganized

Posted 09/26/06

Went to Zengo with two business colleagues, who have eaten at some of the best and finest restaurants in the country and all three of us were impressed with the innovative dishes, amazing flavors and presentation. We got more than enough to eat and we all concurred that Zengo is in our top 5 best meals. If you like fusion, flavor, quality and really good food and atmosphere, you cant go wrong with this restaurant.

Pros: Food, flavor, atmosphere

Posted 09/12/06

Zengo had been recommended to me by a couple of friends who had gone on dates there. I went to Zengo with 7 of my girlfriends on a thursday night and it was a disaster. Even though I called a 1/2 hour beforehand, to confirm there was parking, when I arrived, there was an event going on outside the restaurant and the "complimentary valet" parking was full. I had to park a 10 min. walk away and get quarters at the restaurant and return to the meter. The appetizers came quickly, and were delicious (I recommend the empanadas) but after that everything went downhill. The portions were very small and expensive also. We waited over an hour for the "main courses" to arrive and then they only brought out 2 of our meals. The waitress finally told us they'd forgotten to make one of the orders and so at 9:15pm (with a 7pm reservation) my other friends finally got their sushi, which didn't even taste good and was on the bill. They had to run out the door so as to not get a parking ticket since the cars were parked so far away. The waitress had said she'd send over the manager, but he never came.
Dessert was delicious, but also tiny--one was not enough for even two to share. The waitress again only brought 1 dessert out of 4, and made us wait 10 more minutes for the rest of them. It was a 3 1/2 hour meal, and only half of the peope could stay til the end--and most of us went home still hungry.

I would never go with a group, expect terrible service and maybe you'll be happily surprised--most of the food is good if it can make it to your table!

Pros: Good food if you can get it

Cons: Service, Parking, Portion sizes for price

Posted 08/28/06

Stop here to while shopping lofts at the Glasshouse. Very upscale with personalized service. The outside patio was perfect for people watching. Though hesitant on ordering the Cucumber Mojitio.. it is the BEST DRINK I've ever had. The portions are small and made for sharing, which for those of us that like to remain thin and taste everthing is perfect. The Salmon roll was perfect with no soy or ginger required. Add some extra wasabi if you really feel the need to set your sinuses on fire. The Won Ton Tacos were fabo... enjoy biting into these without them falling apart. Can't wait to come here for dinner! Sangria was decent too.

Pros: Ambience

Cons: Chi ching

Posted 06/18/06

The reason why I'm writing this review is because of the horrible spicy salmon roll I ordered. #1 - FISHY tasty #2 - NOT SPICY at all #3 wrapped in plain tasteless rice, not sushi-rice and then it's battered and fried which made no difference on taste either way. Yuch. When we finally got our entrees (our food took about 1 hour from when we ordered the entree and appetizers together, and our waiter said absolutely nothing to our table about why the food was taking so long, and didn't even come by for about 15 minutes), the entrees were OK. Beef short ribs,a bit overdone. The desserts were OK, but truly nothing spectacular. All in all I would have to say I would never go back to Zengo because the food and service were very poor.

Cons: service, food

Posted 03/08/06

My wife and I went with some friends to Zengo on Saturday night (10/29). Fun atmosphere which was accentuated by the waiters who were dressed up for Halloween. We had ordered drinks which showed up 10 minutes after we had received the appetizers. The waitress stated that the bar was "backed up." None of us had ever had a dining experience where it took 20 minutes to get your drinks. Once we received the drinks, they were quite tasty - I recommend the Sangria. Luckily, the appetizers and the meal was excellent and atmosphere was fun. We probably just got a bad waitress or she didnt really care as she had a table of 8 to 10 people next to us that she was waiting on.

Regardless, we will probably go again, because the food was excellent (I recommend the ribs),but ask for a better server.

Pros: Food, Atmosphere, Drinks

Cons: Service, Crowded Seating, Service

Posted 10/29/05

I went to Zengo with a couple of girlfriends for my birthday on Saturday and we had the most amazing meal. Everything about the experience was outstanding- from the food down to the service. Try the Cod- Out of this world!

Posted 10/16/05

We read some bad reviews for Zengo and thought, "Could it really be that bad??" So on Sunday, October 9, we weathered the rain to try this place out for ourselves. Zengo turned out to be a swank and sexy restaurant, with exceptional service, phenonmenal food, a complimenting wine and sake list, and a key lime pie dessert to die for. Jenny, our attentive and knowledgable server added to the casual yet sophsiticated experience. Zengo's creative fusion offered an enjoyable evening out. We will absoultely be back. Thanks to Zengo and the entire staff.

Pros: ambience, specialty drinkls, food

Posted 10/09/05

I have been to Zengo a few times and the food is fantastic. This Asian-Latin fusion restaurant takes the best of both worlds. While I love the food, the service can be hit or miss. The drinks are a bit over-priced but the cucumber mojito is well worth it!

Pros: Creative food, Fun atmosphere

Cons: Expensive drinks, Average service

Posted 08/22/05

We enjoyed Zengo tremendously. I liked the smaller portions allowing you to graze the menu and experiene the interesting flavors. Although a bit pricey, The Kobe Beef melted in your mouth! The service was outstanding. Plate presentation was beautiful. The atmosphere very hip. Zengo also is a conscious establishment giving back to the community it serves. Seriously, Put this one on your list of places to try.

Pros: Outstanding Menu, Great Service

Cons: Tight Seating

Posted 05/23/05

Food was fantastic, service was top notch, seating was a little crowded. The server went way out of her way to check with the chef on things for me due to food allergies.

Pros: Menu options

Cons: seating

Posted 04/17/05

The scene is trendy, the food is delicious and innovative. However, the tables are packed together, the portions are scant and the service was a mixed bag. Our waitress was incredibly helpful. When she couldn't answer our questions about the wine, she consulted other staff members and promptly offered us suggestions. However, our entrees came out before our appetizer-- and I had to ask twice to have them taken away. I'm sure we received the same plates when we finally were ready for them (1/2 hour later). One experience isn't enough to make/break a place.. .but I would be hesistant to go back simply because, despite the savory food, the place is overpriced for the portion size. Perhaps more style than substance.

Pros: atmostphere, food

Cons: service, price

Posted 03/03/05

A huge dissapointment. The portions were so small, it was a joke. During restaurant week it was a fixed menu that included an appetiser that was tiny and so was the entre. The service was ok, but they don't bring everyones food at the same time. We have been to Tamayo before and loved it, so we were excited about coming to Zengo, but were left hugely dissapointed and hungry. Would not come here again.

Posted 03/03/05

As my boyfriend & I left Zengo after his birthday dinner, we both remarked that we were happy that the food was as good, if not better, than the atmosphere. We were concerned that it would be all about the scene, but the unique blend of Latin and Asian flavors was fabulous. We particularly enjoyed the mango mojito, potstickers, Angry Zengo roll and black cod. Sure, it was pricey and the service could kick it up a notch, but overall it was a wonderful night out.

Pros: Fabulous food, Beautiful atmosphere, Great mojitos

Posted 02/20/05

Fiancee and I tried it after great reviews on this website. All we found was rude staff, average food (that was cold when it was served), and a wait staff that was worthless. It over 20 Min to get drinks served and the waiter did not return to the table after the food was served until I flagged him down for the bill. Terrible!!

Posted 02/18/05

I also was concerned about the previous reviews. My husband and I went to Zengo for his birthday. I must say, everything negative thing said previously was wrong. The food and service were outstanding. Our waiter Paul was attentive and helpful. The wine he helped us choose was excellent and inexpensive. The manager Edgar stopped by twice to see that everything was going well. I must say that this is most likely the BEST service we have ever had in Denver. This was our first visit to Zengo. It will not be our last. We will bring friends and spread the good word.

Pros: Valet Parking, Outstanding food, Excellent service

Posted 12/29/04

I was a little worried after some of the negative reviews I read here. However, we ended up having a fabulous dining experience. The food was AMAZING - especially the black cod entree that we thought was some of the best fish we've ever eaten. But, the service was also exceptional. Our waiter was extremely professional, knowledgable and friendly. The only tiny complaint is that the drinks WERE a bit pricier than they should be but theres no doubt that we'll be going back.

Posted 12/21/04

The decor takes you to a whole new place unexpecting of Denver. My girlfriend and I love to try new places and this is at the top of our list. Great service, unique and delicious food, and a great atmosphere. It is a bit pricey, but well worth it. Opt for valet parking. Try the Kobe beef, it makes an excellent appetizer.

Pros: Service, Decor, Food

Posted 12/18/04

A few words of warning: do not ask for a "house white" unless you want to be surprised with a $14 tab. The server will not volunteer this...and who would think to ask in a town where the normal glass of house white is in the $7-8 range? Also, could the desserts be any more overpriced? Our $9 dessert contained 6 strawberries, missing crisp and half a scoop of ice cream. Servers are scattered and lame and frequently missing in action, food is good but ridiculously priced and there is just way too much 'tude in the place.

Pros: Attractive setting, Hip crowd

Cons: , Poor value on dessert, Snobby

Posted 07/25/04
