It had been 9 years since I had last eaten here and I made the mistake of trying it again. The owner and waiter is a dufus and appears to not care whether your dining experience is pleasant or not. The over touted wine list is SPARSE! While it had some good wines, the selection was less than 25 wines. You either had the choice of low cost wines from nondiscript wineries or you had to pay an arm and a leg for the FEW top wines that they had. Nothing in between. Not much selection among varietals. I thought that maybe they had good food. Wrong! The tomato bisque was a ham handed rustic creation that was better left alone. I had the Cherry Duck. It contained less than a half of a breast that was sliced thin and cooked to death and then smothered in a not very complex or imaginative thick and syrupy cherry sauce better used for a bad cherry pie. The potatoes and vegetables were close to raw. I then made the mistake of having the Bananas Foster for dessert. It was apparently made the in the kitchen and was lacking any banana liqueur or rum and had practically no bananas. This is not a gourmet restaurant and you would be better off going somewhere else.
