Dear God!! I've been going to this place since it opened years ago, and it has been going down the toilet in the past couple of years. Just last weekend, I had what undeniably amounts to THE WORST MEAL EVER there! The only acceptable thing was the semi-fine bottle of wine, but even that is a stretch. And if that is not bad enough, the service is A.W.F.U.L. The folks who run and operate the joint seem to think that they are somehow DC roylaty and thumb their noses at their patrons. It's absolutely dreadful. For the life of me, I can't understand how a meal that costs so much can taste so awful (and I"ve had just about everything on the menu) or why Franco won't buy a functional AC system for the place! All in all, if you want to spend top dollar to see young, attractive women lurking for potential sugar-daddy's or middle-aged and down-right old men looking to score while the wife is at home, this is your place. However, if you want a decent meal, I'd suggest the folks next door at Mortons or down the block at Citronelle or Filamino's.
