WORST PLACE TO DINE. I took my friend to this restaurant for a special birthday dinner. We had awful service and unimpressive food. The staff was unhelpful and acted like it was a hassle to do anything for us. The food is raw and you cook it in what tastes like a bowl of flavored water. We shared cheese and dessert fondue with the entire table and each person ordered their own entree. The cheese fondue was ok, but the bread that they gave us to dip into the cheese was a bunch of crumbs. I myself had maybe 5 pieces of tiny bread dipped into cheese, 3 pieces of chocolate fondue, a small amount of seafood for my entree and I paid $80 for my meal. I nearly fell of my chair. I don't mind paying for a great meal but it was terrible and the service was sub par. After asking why things were so pricey, the waiter proceeded to tell us that not only do you pay for the $15 for cheese, you pay per person for each bowl. This means each cheese fondue bowl cost us around $40. The menu reads $15 each, with no fine print. The waiter did not address this until after our meal. If we wanted to pay this much for our meals we would have gone to a fine dining restaurant and had a memorable meal. There are much better restaurants (two right next door) that deserve the business.
