    We arrived for a 1:30 pm lunch reservation. It took five minutes for the host to appear but we had to wait an additional twenty five minutes to be seated. Once we were seated, we were told that there were only two chefs working and although we were served soup and salads, we had to wait an additional 45 minutes before our chef finished with the table where he was assigned. This was not the chef's fault but the restaurant should have had more chefs on duty or have told us about the long wait.
