I disagree that restuarant reviews should be ignored. Consistantancy is the issue. Here we had 2 people review on the same morning, seperated by a few hours. One whose meal was perfect, the other not. Personal preferences aside, a cold center of hash browns is not something to ignore, I do believe that a premium eating place should deliver consistancy across all dishes served, but the basics should always be the same (tasty, hot, and served on time). The cost of the meal may be higher to achieve this consistancy but that is the price you pay for good food, everytime. I don't look for establishments that are priced higher, but neither am I discouraged by those that serve up the basics consistantly at a higher cost then others.
You get what you pay for! I have no affiliation with the Woodshed, but that is an example of consistancy and at a higher price for it.
