What lynng dislikes about Il Dandy:
We have come twice to this restaurant once during the opening and once on Valentine’s Day. Both times were dissing appointment with the food more so on Valentine’s Day than any other time it was a prefix menu and every item on the menu was bland except for the meat. The carpaccio was like roast beef and cook from the outside which made it hard to imagine that is carpaccio versus roast beef. View all feedback.
I had really looked forward to eating here as it appeared on a lot of best lists. I was very disappointed. The space is cold and the table layouts are uncomfortable. We were seated next to a large art piece which had the table right up against the sculpture base. So on one side we were completely against a wall. The restaurant was so cold and the large doors were open. I noticed most people were wearing their jackets. The service was good. We were assisted by several people who were all very nice. The food was not as flavorful as you would expect. Every dish needed salt. Most disappointing was that both main dishes were served lukewarm. Basically I think the dishes sat at the pass since the restaurant was busy. We had waited a while for our food so we didn't send it back. The dessert menu was mostly unappealing and the tiramisu we settled on was not very good. I doubt I will return. Also $6 for bread seems excessive. The drink menu was good.
Awful experience- the food was inedible and none of it seemed fresh. The dishes were cold when served and the service was atrocious. We will not be returning.
I had a feeling that this restaurant was trying out their first Valentine's Day fixed menu since they opened last year. Overall, the $250 spent for two people was not worth it. We were seated about 15-20 minutes late for our reservation even though we arrived 20 minutes early. It took another 15-20 minutes before someone greeted us at our table - we had to flag them down. The first course was served in a decent amount of time, before our drinks. However, the second course was piping hot for my wife but cold for me, and it took about 25 minutes. We informed the waitress about this and she told us they were running out of ravioli, so the chef had to hand-make more. I decided not to send mine back as it would have meant another 20-minute wait, and I was hungry. When it was time for dessert, the restaurant informed us they had dropped the desserts and asked if we would like a substitution with a regular cake. The lack of service and strange occurrences were not compensated for on the bill, despite the waitress saying she would make it up to us. Even though the chefs may be Michelin-rated, we do not plan on returning. Perhaps it was just an off night.
