This was my second and last time at Garfield's. First of all, a disclaimer -- both times I was with a large group. Last week 8 of us went for a celebration. I'd tried to find their menu on-line but it wouldn't come up. One lady was able to access it but there were no prices. I guess that's the \"if you have to ask the price, you don't belong here,\" kind of thinking. \n\nWe had reservations, so they should've been prepared for a group. Our table was cobbled together -- one square and 2 round tables shoved together, sort of like Thanksgiving at grandma's. The service was slow. It was a Friday night and I really think they did not have enough staff. \n\nI had a warm spinach salad with melted goat cheese dressing. It was not warm and the tiny drizzle of goat cheese was very sparse. There was a handful of walnut halves and six very thin slices of apple. ($10.) The serving of potato-leek soup was a bare minimum which covered the bottom of the soup plate ($9). The guest of honor had the halibut and raved about it so that was obviously a hit. I think it was $38. The prices overall were more than I've experienced at other upscale Las Vegas restaurants such as Rosemary's or the Carmel Room at the Rampart for food that was adequate but not great. \n\nSo the service was slow, the food average and the room we were in was noisy! We were in the middle room where we could see outside and it is lovely, but too loud to carry on a conversation. \n\nThe final straw for me was after we'd left I asked the lady who paid the bill if she'd realized they add an 18% gratuity to parties of 8 or more. It's clearly stated on the menu, but she hadn't seen that. It would've been decent -- and perhaps ethical, too -- if the waiter had quietly mentioned that a gratuity has already been included in the bill. She'd added a 20% tip, so the wait-staff got a 38% tip for very poor service. Our water glasses were never refilled, nor was the bread basket replenished. \n\nOh, and the wine list? Minimal. No Italian wines to compliment the lasagna or spaghetti dishes. Very slim pickings. \n\nFor my money, the smaller Marche Bacchus at the other end of the parking lot is much nicer -- better service, better food, same lovely view and a feeling of actually being welcome. I won't be back to Garfield's.
