This is our first time going to the Arch since the old owners retired and we were dissapointed with the overall quality of the restaurant. The general atmosphere of the Arch was not as cozy as it used to be. My wife ordered escargot and it was not as good as past. I ordered artichoke appetizer that was not what I expected. It was fried and did not taste good. Thus the first portion was disappointing. The main course my wife had the branzino fish which she loved. I had a filet mignon cooked medium. It was very tough and not what filet should be. It should be tender. For me it was not good. Also no side came with it and thus I had to purchase a side of mashed potatoes. Now comes the last course or so we thought the dessert. All we were asked is if we would like coffee or cappuccino or tea. There was no dessert menu. The only dessert that they offered when we began ordering was soufflé. We were expecting some other dessert to complete our dinner but no dessert menu was offered. For 2 people without tip it cost close to $200 for a meal that was not worth anywhere close to that amount. We were looking forward to a nice Anniversary dinner (which I mentioned in Open Table reservation but no one even said congrats) but instead had a 2 out of 5 star dinner. We will not be going back because of the quality of the food. In conclusion the old Arch always made great food and made you feel special. This is non existent with the new version.

However, it was noisier that previous visits. I think because the floor is now hard wood instead of a rug which absorbs some of the sound. The Beef Carpaccio was excellent. It was the best I have tasted in awhile. We had steak, which was very good, but loaded with salt. Everything had a lot of salt. I'm a salt lover and it was a bit too much for me. I had the chocolate lava cake for dessert. It was homemade and delicious. I was a bit disappointed that they did not have souffle's on the Valentine's day menu and wouldn't make them that night. That is my favorite part of going to the Arch and I feel it's their signature dessert. We also had a bottle wine. I did not recognize any of the selections on the menu so I asked the waiter for options. The wine he suggested was outstanding. It was a Pinot Noir and the price was reasonable.

Meal was just not very impressive. I could have gotten just as good of a meal for half the price read more Meal was just not very impressive. I could have gotten just as good of a meal for half the price
