    The Valencia orange salad was soggy, from too much dressing. The ‘pretzel’ was more like pull apart bread. The chicken sandwich was good.

    We had an inconsistent experience. This restaurant is tapas style but the server made it sound like family style, much different size expectations. We loved the butter that came with the biscuits, the Brussels, and the strawberry shortcake (phenomenal). The pasta was good and definitely house made but didn’t stand out and was a tiny portion. The chicken was very hard to share. The noise level was very loud and combined with how dark the restaurant is, it was comfortable. Our server said the food would come out one at a time and in order of course but it didn’t. The timing was very spread out and the entire meal took two hours. We were very tired by the end. The staff was very nice!

    MB Post is too loud. Other than that, it’s great.

    We visited on MB Post's 14th anniversary, where they had a prix fixe menu. It is difficult to be a great restaurant; it is even more interesting to do so for 14 years by keeping up with the evolving restaurant scene. We had the kind of dinner you would expect from MB Post. It had innovative dishes, well conceived and executed. Especially impressive was the ahi appetizer and the porchetta/polenta main course. We have all had an ahi appetizer, but not like this. The pork entree is a rarity, but this one shown bright with its textures and flavors. If you have been to this restaurant in the past, it is probably worth a revisit.

    Service was not great. No-one checked on us and we had to keep trying to make eye contact with our server (and other servers) so we could get our bill to leave.

    Brussel sprouts were drowning in sauce, not crispy at all. Cauliflower came out luke warm. Scallop dish was $28 for three tiny scallops. Salmon ok. Have been there before and it was much better then. Quality not comparable to price point.
