Why is this in Off Topic and not Food/Restaurant forum?

I don't trust Tom Sietsema's food reviews anymore. He has given too many bad recommendations.

Northside Social is more of a bar that serves food. Like Clare n Dons. You don't go for the food.

Totally agree with Le Diplomate and give it more than one shot.

I like Rasika, though.

Tail Up Goat was disappointing. I'd try again in case it was just an off night.


Tail up goat was amazing pre-pandemic. When they reopened, they had changed their menu and approach and it's much less good.


Tail Up Goat is so lackluster. Maydan too Imo.


I enjoyed tail up goat, but definitely didn’t think it lived up to the hype/price. Maydan was not enjoyable. I’m actually annoyed I spent an evening there.


That is disappointing because I loved maydan but went before the pandemic


I’m the PP. We went a couple months ago. They pressured us into the chefs choice menu or whatever it’s called where they bring you whatever they want. That may have been our mistake. But I found the food surprisingly bland. The toum had no flavor, for example, which actually seems hard to accomplish.

Fiola Mare is such a waste of money. OMG so overrated.


I agree with all of these.


I agree with these too. I would add Sfoglina to the list.


Also agree with St. Anselm at the top of the list. Their wedge salad is downright gross.


Their cuts of meat are also disappointing. I can make a better steak from the grocery store. I do like their biscuits though.

Rasika used to be great but went downhill hard.
La Bise is pretty poor for the prices they charge. It’s probably no better than La Madeleine.

I agree. The food is very good but not with the price or the drive. And the setting and service are so scripted and precious. I felt like I was in culinary Disneyland.

+100000

I have never understood the hype. We have gone a few times because of DH business associates. What a waste of money and time.
