A: We went here New Year's Eve prior to going to Hale Theater. There were 4 of us and it was fairly empty. By the time we left (5:50), the place was packed. Ambiance: Walking in and seeing the dessert display was very appealing! The choices were fantastic! The openness and decorations are nice. However, it was fairly cold out and the cafe was very hot. I am guessing this is due to the open kitchen. Since we got there and only a few tables were taken, the noise level was good. Service: We were seated and promptly asked for our drink orders. Even though they knew they had a busy night coming, the staff was friendly and courteous. I've read other reviews and did encounter the poor experience as the others. For those who are in a time crunch, I would recommend arriving a bit early. The food is cooked to order. While the service may seem slow, for most European restaurants, it was quick. From time of arrival to departure, it was 1 hour 15 minutes. Food: As others have stated, the menu is quite large. We started out with the Romeo's Choice Skins, which were very tasty. I ordered the Ravioli Calavo, which came out piping hot due to being a baked dish. The dish was very good, although a little too saucy. The addition of the avocado to the dish really made a tasty difference. Dessert: Since we were running late, we decided to come back for dessert. The choices are plentiful and all very good.

A:
The food is way overrated. The ambiance, patio, service, decor, and drinks are fantastic, and the shows on the lake are bizarre, I loved them. The staff were very accommodating as our party went from 4 to 6 to 7 to 6. We asked for and received awesome patio seating in VERY uncomfortable patio chairs. Note to management: get some cushions for those chair backs! The server was well trained, as were all of the staff. Didn't love the description of what makes beef Kobe, but she didn't hedge with the info and I give her credit for that. Her "I don't mind, I'm not doing it to the animals" was a little snarky, but that's ok. I was surprised that the only grass-fed beef option was a special. I would assume they'd have had more options. The staff were flexible with our late-comer who I was ordering for ahead of time, and were concerned about when to start his food; they came up with a plan for that, which was very kind. The patio is great, especially on a beautiful night like we had. The interior is really beautiful, in a very simple, modern way. Very comfortable looking, while maintaining sophistication. But back to the food--it was fine. My scallops were good though overpriced, everyone's dinners were fine; no complaining, but no raving at all. And this is a food-raving bunch when it's warranted. There was nothing special about the scallops, the risotto under, or the grass-fed NY strip. The asparagus was fine, the scalloped potatoes were too much goo and not enough potato, and I'd say the only to-die-for item on the table were the sauteed mushrooms. They were heavenly--but with enough butter, anyone can make heavenly mushrooms. My bottomline: Won't be back here. We'll try Morels or Del Monico's at the Venetian next time, or continue on our hunt for A++++ restaurants at $$ prices. Because that's when something is really special!
