Though we had reservations and asked for a "quiet corner" we were seated across from a meeting room doorway. There was a rather noisy gathering in the meeting room, thus our dinner was certainly not quiet. In hindsight we should have asked to be moved as the restaurant was not busy. Our waitress was an airhead; our drinks took forever ... receiving our wine with dessert. Our appetizers and salads were average, the entrees good. The chocolate macadamia tort was inedible; the crust could not be cut with the edge of a fork. It tasted as though it had been in the walk in for quite a while. Overall, I don't think we will return. The food/ value/ ambiance equation doesn't add up for us even though we live close by.

They used canned pineapple!
