It's taken me a few days to reply to this post as I carefully weighed whether to get into a debate on what happened. Let me preface this by saying any restaurant can have a bad night and it's not a excuse but I worked the floor that evening and remember the couple. First of all, when I seat a party I ask if they would prefer a table or booth. The couple chose a booth and as I sat them, asked if this was all right with them. They said it was. ( I do this with all parties of 4 or less). As far as The Firecracker Calamari, it's going to be a little sour, the dish consists of Fried Calamari tossed with gaetta olives, capers, cherry peppers, scallions & balsamic vinegar, all stated on the menu. Next, I use kosher salt which isn't like normal salt, it's not as potent and we still use it sparingly. Now for the Soft Shell Crabs, The special said the sauce was Chardonnay-lemon viniagrette not a buerre blanc. The buerre blanc was for the Maryland Crabcakes. The crabcakes were a app, The Soft Shells were a entree. I also print my specials with prices and descriptions and they are easy to read. As for the steak, I don't know what to say. I use Prime steak. And I certainly don't use my deep-fryer for a steak. As a matter of fact the Soft Shell aren't deep fried. I brown them in a saute pan and then bake them so they don't pick up oil. Also I use Panko, not regular bread crumbs because they don't absorb the oil as much as traditional bread crumbs will. Last, but not least, I poured The Poggi di Poggi Chianti the couple drank last Wednesday. After every course their waiter Sean asked how everything was and they replied all was fine. As they left I said good night and as usual, as with all my customers asked how everything was affording the opportunity to register a complaint, none was given. Hey, I'm in this business to make people happy, and if something is wrong with the restaurant we need to know to correct it. It doesn't do us or the customers any good to tell us on the way out that everything was great and then write on the web to "Tie on the feed bag". To the courtzzzz, give me another chance, somehow through Rosie's help let me comp you a dinner, I want you enjoy my restaurant without me knowing who you are and when you done if you're still disappointed then I'll take a public flogging.
