    We did not have a good dining experience at Smith and Wollensky … Our waiter was very, very helpful and pleasant but the food was awful. For the price that you pay to dine at this establishment we expected a lot more. I ordered the lamb chops and got two tiny raw lamb chops that were more fat than meat. My coworker got a lobster roll and when she bit into it , bit into a piece of frozen lobster. Our other coworker purchased the steak salad, which was an entire head of iceberg lettuce with a few pieces of meat - just a terrible dining experience. This was our annual business lunch and it was an embarrassment.

    Unfortunately S&W Wellesley was a disappointment. Our reservation was at 6:45 PM and we didnt see a waiter or place a drink order until 7:30. We didnt see them again to order our meals for another half hour. Purchased the swinging wagyu tomahawk at a medium rare and came back rare. Never send food back but asked to sear it a little and was still more rare than preferred. At 250.00 the last thing you want is to have your steak not cooked to your preference. Also bone marrow was under cooked and actually waiter cleaned our plates from table while we were still eating the returned steak and sides were taken. Asked for second drink and never received it. Then waiter brought it to me after we ordered coffee while he did tell me it was on the house for him forgetting.
