This year, not so much. The lump crab meat crab cake appetizers were okay. Last year they were remarkable for their flavor and seasoning. This year something was "off". They are typically characterized by very little filling and truly are lump lump crab meat. But they were unusually bland. That should have been seen as how the rest of the meal would go. I had the small filet and it was first class--served hot, cooked perfectly and was a melt in your mouth cut. My partner had the fish topped with lump crabmeat and a light lemon butter sauce. It was unusually dry, perhaps having been prepared ahead of time and put under a heating lamp. Dry as in really, really dry. And at $60 it cost more than my steak. It was barely okay at best. The lump crab meat could not compensate for the fish. The sides were great and initially the service was special. After ordering a bottle of wine we had both been served our first glass about the time the crab cakes came out and the bottle was placed on a table in the middle of the dining room. The entrees came out a short time later and our waiter disappeared. He later apologized and explained he got pulled to another area. In any event, we had almost completely finished our main courses with empty wine glasses so I got up retrieved the bottle and brought it to our table. I'm not above serving my own wine, I have no problem with that but I was torn between being disrespectful to the server and having wine with our meal. I shouldn't have been put in that position. This is a high end restaurant and the prices reflect that, prices I don't mind paying for but the food and service should reflect the standards one expects. They let us down. Regrettably we won't be returning any time soon.
