    The apps were average, the tuna was horrid, the waiter spilled our wine all over himself, promised a after dinner porto which never arrived, uptight, stuffy, never, ever be back.

    The previous reviewer is obviously an insecure whiner. NOTHING can be as bad as what he's stated and if the waiter didn't deliver a promised after dinner drink, gcharrang, should have had the balls to ask for it. Yes, the Plumed Horse is expensive and formal but the food and wine selections are spectacular. It is not, however, stuffy or uptight. The previous reviewer should have ventured to McDonald's where he'd likely feel more secure.

    the upgrade to PH has made it a very swanky joint. Las Vegas strip look and feel. I mean that in a good way. Menu and Wine List are superb. I had one of the greatest meals here before it was upgraded, rack of lamb, CdQ with dessert. Post upgrade it was all still good, but maybe not quite up to my very high expectations.

    With reservations.... we waited an hour for our table.

    During our FOUR HOUR wait for our food, the kitchen served us ice cream... ice cream before the main meal. The food was good.... after the kitchen corrected the mistakes. One mistake was cooking a New York steak well done, when it was ordered rare. Any beginner chef knows how to cook the most basic of proteins.

    The service was horrid. The atmosphere was almost gothic, due to the Food Servers' lack of sincere hospitality. Don't drink your bottle of wine too quickly, because the food servers aren't very prompt.

    Much more should be expected when two people spend over $500.00 for a dinner.
