Gibson - San Andreas

The food was spectacular; the bar, not so much. There were no familiar labels of ghosts. I only have a glass of wine. We will return.

The food and service are stars. The scallop appetizer was actually very delicious. We like the crunchy quinoa and smoked beets both elevated the complexity of the dish. Scallops are both perfectly cooked. Then, we had sole and halibut for the entrees. The fish was perfectly cooked and moist. Unfortunately, the fish did not have flavor and the halibut came in the bowl. It was so hard to cut the fish. The restaurant had around tables, a private dining room and a bar. However, there was only one, or maybe two, waiter on the floor. The waiter tried to cover everything but not sufficient. The floor manager worked at the bar half of the time. I don’t know whether someone called sick or what but the service was lack behind.

Started with excellent roasted onion soup, flat bread and humus spread, well crafted cocktail. Proceeded to perfunctory service, incredibly long wait for main course, and over salted preparation.

Restaurant week! menu wine pairing. Service was great — seated quickly in a dining room that was filling up with other Restaurant Week diners. Some highs some lows on the menu. High: aged steak. Low: overall saltiness. The Gibson has a beautifully appointed interior— be sure to carefully view the gorgeous mural on the ceiling! All in all a good experience.

We had a fabulous meal. The chicken and pork were excellent. Also we loved the pasta. And the Brussels sprouts were amazing. The restaurant itself was lovely and the staff was friendly. I will definitely be back. Also a great place to eat before rushing off to the theatre.
