    The food was disappointing. . We ordered two appetizers- the brussel sprouts and the breads with bacon. The brussel sprouts were ok. The breads with cheese and bacon were underwhelming and not worth the $20 charge. We ordered the steak tacos which were good but not worth 32.00 for 2 tacos and 6 tortilla chips. My husband ordered the fried chicken and it was awful. It was extremely dry and KFC would have tasted better. We shared the mud pie for dessert and it was fine. For $150 check I would have expected much better quality food. Our server was a young kid who was very good and nice though. With all the great food in Carmel we will not return

    The Sur menu is consisitently good, not great. Sur’s service is excellent. Austin is a rock star. Unfortunately, food quality and value has dropped slightly. Restaurants cannot escape inflation. But they can get more creative. $15 for a 4”x4” Cheese bread appetizer could be a loss leader when you consider a dinner visit to Sur for 3 (without alcohol) is easily going to exceed $175. Try comping an appetizer above a set ticket price? Something for Sur to think about going forward.

    Never again. Waited 30 between appetizers and salad and over 30 for the check. Told AFTER meal there is a 20% mandatory tip for groups 5 or over. Good food, horrible experience.

    The food was great and the service was terrible. We had a great waiter Alpha and then they switched our waiter to another gentleman that had way too many tables. Greed got the best of him and he forgot to submit our order to the kitchen and took us 40 minutes to receive our meal…a salad and a hamburger. Very disappointing

    Our server Mark was incredibly kind and overly accommodating. The food was superb and the desserts were to die for! 10/10 would absolutely come back and recommend to friends!
