Went to the restaurant on Saturday with a very god friend of mine and her family. She is a very good customer who has dinners and has had other events there. I ordered twin lobster tails (which I have had there before) which came out burnt and overcooked. I sent the meal back because I couldn't eat it. The meal was brought back to me and was told the chef said that there was nothing wrong with them and that if they made another meal it would be the same. I told the person that brought me back the meal that she should tell the chef to eat them himself. I couldn't believe what she said. I think the manager should of came to the table to apologize out of respect for my friend who spends thousands of dollars there every year on meals.
