We were there on November 4 of this year 2025. The last time we were at this restaurant it was amazing. It has been some time since we returned. It was a Tuesday night for dinner. We made reservations when we arrived. There was absolutely nobody in the lounge or in the restaurant at this time. We had brought a couple to join us for dinner from Australia. At start, we had ordered two appetizers. One was a saffron muscles and the other was a calamari. Upon receiving these appetizers, I realize that the muscles were dry and the sauce was very thick and pasty. It is not the same as I remembered from our last visit and for the calamari it was presentable and OK. On that note we had decided to order two orders of chicken saffron. One was for me and one was for my guest. The menu said oven roasted potatoes after talking with the waitress they were deep-fried the chicken saffron which is wrapped in puff pastry. I felt for the price that you were charging $32 was not acceptable for the product that I received or my guest I do understand the cost of food and inflation what we receive was one chicken breast cut in half and then wrapped in final pastry stuff with mushrooms once again if you’re advertising saffron sauce, then you must present a good European saffron sauce there might have been 2 ounces of sauce for the plate which is not sufficient and amount for the product that was received. One of the guests has ordered nachos, which were very good and My Wife ordered a Caesar salad, which was very small for the price that you were charging especially it comes with no toast just a Caesar salad and the price for that was $17. Nothing especially with that product. For years now My Wife and I have been talking about saffron to other people saying that we had such a great experience in the previous time that we were there unfortunately this time was absolutely unacceptable considering that there was no people in the restaurant no people in the lounge and the food that came out was mediocre for a $250 bill. We may reconsider to give us another try in the future date, but it is important for me to discuss this with you and hope that your food quality and service do upgrade in the future.

Visiting on burger week. I do not eat burger, my family does: they loved the burger! And the salad with the giro was absolutely delicious. No photos, we just enjoyed the food.

Ordered “pan fried pickerel, but it come deep fried!
The manager’s explanation was that the menu said “pan-fried”, and pan is an abbreviation of panko! So it has to be deep fried!
Very disappointed!

If you plan on having the seafood linguini dish....don't. The price is $30 for a bowl of noodles with 4 shrimp and a few tiny oysters. Disappointed

Terrible. Drink spilled on my date. Waitress was clueless on how to handle it. Then gave us bill for full amount. What a nightmare.

Went late afternoon, place was absolutely empty.. nobody to greet us at all. Older gentleman from a table eating called out to us that the "bartender" was outside and we could just go right out to the patio. We do after walking through the whole place that's a ghost town. Sit down, almost 15 mins later after being greeted she comes back to see if we've decided which we had and then some. Wait another 10 minutes for a simple beer to arrive and food comes out right away(yay!) If you're going to say a pint of beer, make sure it's a pint BTW. We got our beers in a tiny 14oz Little Brown Jug goblet. 7.75 for that is atrocious. Calamari used to be way better too. Incredibly bland and thoroughly a waste of time and money.. Would not recommend and wouldn't catch me going back any time soon

Pizza crust was like mush. Pizza was like heavy cheese barely melted over uncooked mush.
