Watershed at the Owl

We had an amazing dinner here, the restaurant itself is beautiful and the food was so delicious. We tried just about everything on the menu including desserts, and all of it was locally sourced, so fresh and well prepared. The highlight of our evening was interfacing with the chef, Jackie, who was so much fun and had great recommendations. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Writing this as we sit waiting for our food, over 1.5 hours after arriving. Service was good for the first 20-30 mins, got us drinks, check ins, but thereafter almost nothing. We were told 15 mins ago that our food was up next. Nope, still waiting. At a place with these prices they need to at least bring bread if they’re this slow. Update: we got our food near the 2 hr mark. It’s 9:15, we arrived at 6:50, and we’re just leaving. On the plus side they did throw in dessert to-go (thus 2 stars). Food was good but not amazing. Very small portions. For cost you’d expect more all round. We are local foodies and wanted to love this place but they’ve got work to do before we’ll be back.

Appear we were seated next to the "family/business" table, with children running about, people seated in chairs as well as people standing, a less than pleasant atmosphere for a couple. My house salad was decent, fresh, but of the three choices for dressing doctored ranch and two vinagerettes, I chose one of those. It was applied so sparingly I have no idea of its taste only sensed some heat. The bread was good, the olive oil and lemon zest was awful. Not a taste we enjoyed. My gnocchi was store bought, flavorless, the sauce appeared to be Campbell's cheddar cheese soup with frozen peas and some tiny sprouts, devoid of flavor. We ordered chocolate cake to go, best part of meal. Keep that vendor. My wife had a different salad which she said was OK. Main course shrimp and grits she said was good. She enjoyed her German wine. Service was very good. Wife gave her experience a B-, I gave it a solid D. Note having just opened post covid they were out of Green Tomatoes still on the new menu. There was no mention of that prior to attempting to order. Basically the "Family reunion" at the table next to us was totally inconsiderate especially since it was the owners!
