It had been a couple (few?) years since I had been up there for dinner so we thought we'd give it a try this past weekend - what happened!?

Wine list - a joke, (best was a Kendall Jackson - hello!?). Food - looks like the menu went to a "chain restaurant" style, too much on it and the quality was shameful. The cesar salad I got was way over dressed and had more garlic and anchovy paste in it, I tasted it until the next day. I ordered the hailbut for dinner, what I didn't order was the GAINT bone right down the middle of it, and it was about a 5oz piece of fish, (with your finger on the scale), and that was just my dinner. On top of it all, the prices - for what you got - awful. It was about the same $$$ as Canoe in Ctr. Harbor, and Canoe is 100x better!! (with a better wine list ;o). The only caveat to the whole night was the server was nice - otherwise, save your time and money and go elsewhere...
