Food Quality

Cons:
"I didn't love the tarte tatin, it was like a solid sweet block of apple."
"I don't think the food was worth the price I paid though there wasn't anything outstanding about it."
"It was more like a cheap smash burger and did not even taste fois gras."
"Food was extremely salty and steak was not chewable."
"Steak is fine but way overpriced."
"Presentation is horrible, bland food."
"The dish with razor clams is mainly a vegetable dish with clam sauce."

"The service at this place is amazing."
"What truly sets M. Wells apart, however, is the impeccable service."
"The staff very helpful and professional."
"Service was excellent. Waitress was very nice and they pack your leftovers and have them waiting at the front door."
Cons:
"Our guests had empty glasses."
"Service was non-existent after the order was taken."
"My server seemed to have a passive aggressive attitude and while not being overtly ill-mannered, he was not friendly/approachable."
"The prices are very high, and the mandatory 20% fee just takes all the 'feel good' and 'control' that tipping is supposed to provide to the customer."
"Service was terrible but not offensive- I think she just didn't have enough experience."
"We had to send the first choice back as it was sour and awful, and we kept the cabernet."
"We had a party of 6 and waited over 20min to even be greeted by our waiter."
