There was something in the air that caused some of the mis-steps at the restaurant. Our vodka tonics didn't have tonic, the lobster arrived without the appropriate lobster cracker and we had to wait for over 20 minutes for our entrees. We give high praise to the lobster dinner & the lobster roll. The raw oyster appretizer was shucked properly and was tasty. We've been to the Tun House on many occassions & this was the first time things were off kilter.

The oysters were so bad that I was afraid to eat some of them; mushroom soup wasn't very good and the chocolat dessert was very salty

I had a reservation for the main dinning are @7:00 and I was offered a high table. There are many individuals that are not comfortable sitting at high tables and high table height chairs. They informed me that regular table was not available and I had to wait. I was seated @7:20. They should inform guests of the possibility of not being seated at a regular table in advance when they have a reservation. The food was good however: two guests in our party had the salmon and had stomach and GI problems afterwards.

While we had to wait a while for our table, the manager comped us on several appetizers. The crab dip and Brussels sprout were outstanding. All 6 people in our party enjoyed their dinners. My wife and I both had Salmon which was a generous portion and a great sauce. We will return!

I ordered steak frites-and asked for the steak to be done medium. The steak was done medium well to well done. Because of the amount of time it took to get the order when I mentioned it to the server they offered another one-but I declined. It’s lessened the experience-which generally has been good in the past.

Not good service.. waited for a waitress for 20 minutes and had to go and ask for one.. drinks served incorrectly.. filet mignon served improperly. temperature not even close to what was ordered and that person had to wait 30 minutes and eat after the rest of the table . When Filet came back the second time, it was bland and overpowered by the sauce, and the potatoes were runny. The staff did try to accommodate by giving us dessert, which was nice, but overall a pretty poor experience. :(

Great experience. 12 people sharing a meal at a single table, all dishes, except the soup, were shared and we got to serve ourselves like we would do at a family dinner. Food was excellent, got the chef to come and explain each dish, which was very informative and a great personal touch. It was the first time they hosted a dinner with this format and I hope it is not the last
