I've been wondering how come an average of 2.5 star reviews came up to be 4.5 in citysearch summary. That just doesn't add up. We have about 5 people giving this POS place lower than 3 and only 2 giving full 5-star (most likely paid by the restaurant) and the summary says 4.5 star... I think citysearch is not being honest here. What a scam!!!! Anyways, this is one of the worst high-end restaurants that I've been to (I've been to many great restaurants in Boston, L'espalier, Mistral, Excelsior, Federalist, No. 9 Park, etc). Good thing I was using my expense account. I ordered a steak and I had asked them to cook it MEDIUM. The steak came overcook, it was more like medium well or even well done. It was really dry. For a restaurant that claimed to be a "steak house" they should at least get it right. It was ridiculous!!! I told our waiter that the steak was overcooked and he gave me this annoyed look and suddenly picked up my plate without asking anything. I thought they were going to give me a new one (like a good steak house should) but no, they just cut the steak in the middle (which made it even dry) and showed me this slightly pink middle. well mister waiter, that was definitely not medium. By then I was so annoyed and said "you know I'm starving, let me just have it". I must say that they have some good bar menu and apps. but for steak go somewhere else. I would never set my foot on this restaurant again, and I'll make sure that all of my friends and colleagues know to avoid this place at ANY COST!!!

Pros: Nice view, nice interior

Cons: bad service, bad steak
