The first thing I will say is that upon entry, you need to be warned that there is a step inside the door. I wasn't warned, and only for the fact a table stopped my falls, I would have fallen head over heels. I jarred my shoulder, but at no time did the door person or owner asked if I was OK. They seriously need to place a warning sign on that door. They do not offer ala carte. You now have a choice of two or three courses. We chose the three courses. For the first course, I chose the duck liver pate, and my friend chose scallops. The duck liver pate was disgusting, and I barely had two bites. I told the waiter. He apologised and offered another first course. I declined, and he said he'll give us one free dessert. The pasta course (Paccheri, Salsiccia, Sausage, Cavalo Nero, White Wine) was brilliant. Well seasoned and tasty. I could have had a second serving. We both had the scotch fillet (medium and medium-rare). As a side, we ordered the Potatoes, Rosemary, Garlic. Our steaks arrived, but the potatoes were nowhere to be seen. We waited a couple of minutes and called the server, who said they'd be there shortly. Side dishes need to come at the same time as the main. I had my steak as medium, but it was more medium-well. Wasn't happy but it was edible. Pretty ordinary. At the beginning, I asked for the wine list, which is a 60+ page binder. I thought a burgundy would be good, but at $2,500, a bottle that was a no. I looked at a merlot, and they were priced at $350 or more per bottle. We finally found an $80 red blend. The waiter was excellent, but what let thing down was the servers. They need to be on the ball rather than lacklustre. All up, it cost $400 for four courses, two cocktails, and a bottle of wine was reasonable. We'll definitely be back, but the servers need to be better.
