We received a coupon for $25 off to go to Altitude - and were excited to have an evening out at a four star restaurant. We ended up being very disappointed. The positive note - the service was great - it was a Wednesday night and fairly slow, so the servers were attentive. However, the food was severly lacking in flavor for the price we paid. The meals average from $25 to $40 a plate. I had the salmon veracruzana - which wasn't completely cooked in the center and had little flavor - served on overcooked basmati rice that was in a watery tomato broth. (Really sloppy and hard to eat - almost a soup.) It was supposed to have a roasted poblano mango relish. I never saw a poblano, the mango was not ripe - hard strips of stringy fruit. An overwhelming disappointment. My husband had dry rubbed baby back ribs. The waitress said they were spicy, but they came out dry, stringy and really bland. The baked potato was good - hard to screw it up, since they serve all the toppings on the side for you to add. We had planned on ordering dessert, but after the lacking meal decided to go elsewhere for the evening. To top it off, the waitress added herself a 20% tip for a ""large party"", even though there were only two of us. (Because we were using a coupon? We generally tip well, I don't like presumptious waitstaff. I am guessing they get stiffed regularly.) In the end, with our $25 off coupon - the meal cost us $50 with two meals (no apps or dessert) and one glass of soda. We left very disappointed and craving something tasty....
Pros: Good Service
Cons: Horrible food
