Gastrognome

Got in right away. The setting of the place is really nice. We got sat down and after 15 minutes without being attended I had to call for the waiter. Once we ordered the food it took about an hour for us to get the food and the place wasn’t that busy with a couple tables open. I got my burger medium rare thinking it was a decent quality meat but no. The burger is 2/10 the meat has no flavor and the buns aren’t even toasted or anything. So dry in your mouth. The fries were mid, maybe 5/10. I could make a better burger at home. The waiter sucked, and walked around like he dreads working here. The other two waiters with the white shirts did a way better job. Wouldn’t come back unfortunately even tho the other food outside the burger looks good.

Maybe we just didn’t order the right things, but this place seemed way overhyped, since the food was lacking overall. I got the grilled chicken and penne. The chicken was good but the pasta was extremely bland. It’s supposed to come with sun-dried tomatoes, but I got a few pieces and mostly diced tomatoes. I got two pieces of broccoli, which was delicious, but there was hardly any of it. My bf got the gnome dip. He said the meat was great, the sandwich needed more sauce, and the dip was very bland. The fries were good; crispy and not greasy. The bread brought to our table was awful. 3 small pieces was all we got. It was warm but not fresh. It had no flavor. The butter was pads of Cisco butter, which added zero flavor the bread. It was disappointing. The staff was very friendly and attentive, so no problems there. But the food was such a let down. I don’t think we would dine here again.

Service was good. Chicken penne had no flavor. Tasted like it was all boiled together, Drained and put on a plate. Onion soup was pretty good. Ribeye had a little flavor but not much. Had high hopes for this place but definitely fell short on expectations. Great place for older clientele as not much seasoning going on with food.

Do you see that itty bitty salad behind my daughters dinner plate? That was my dinner salad. That is not a side salad. That is their dinner cesar salad which costs 13.00. Grossly over priced. I was told for an additional 8.00 I could add chicken and they would spread the lettuce portion out on a larger plate for me to make it appear larger. I will never return. Where is Gordon Ramsey when you need him?
