  A very expensive $25.00 hamburger was a failure: the meat was tepid, grey and fried, not grilled. two tiny slices of tomato were matched to bits of lettuce that were more stalk than leaf. The fries, by contrast, were OK.

  Worst food I've ever tasted above $10 price range. We ordered the $55 Steak (medium rare) with veggies and yorkshire pudding. Steak cut and quality were extremely bad, tough like leather, no juices, no flavour nothing. Mashed potatoes were tasteless and clumpy. Veggies were way undercooked and basically raw. The Yorkshire pudding was probably the most disappointing since instead of fluffy and white/golden, it was blackened to a flaky crisp like burnt toast. I've never actually had to send a meal back in my life, but this time I did. Thankfully they were kind enough to take the meals off my wife and I's bill as we had only had a bite of each thing.
  
  The kitchen is in MAJOR trouble. It seems as if a group of 17 year olds with no cooking experience were thrown together with no leadership and told to make food. Yet charge high end prices for food most average people, let alone cooks could prepare to a much higher quality. Worst value for money I've ever experienced. It almost felt like fraud. Do not eat here.

  Food was glorious! Had the crab cakes as an app which was so amazingly light. Crispy and fluffy all at once, and an aioli that matches perfectly. Nothing compared to the burger though. That maple taste really knocked it out of the park. Perfect texture and the most balanced flavouring to boot.

  I feel sad that the reviews here seem to concentrate on minor pickings about warm table water and their obviously poor food choices. The food was of the caliber you expect at an establishment like this - modern, flavoursome, well cooked, well balanced, expensive. On the night I dined, the kitchen and floor staff were discombobulated by a larger number of covers than expected due to a tour group arrival. In all hospitality crisis situations it must be remembered that the cream of the waitstaff rise to the top and they are the ones to be remembered. Our waiter worked so hard to keep our table and section as happy as possible while other waitstaff (and the floor manager) flounced about filling water glasses, changing linens at snails pace to turn a table over and asking how we felt about the long wait for food. In all, it took 3.5 hours for our table of four to eat a three course meal. I've had a 7 course degustation in less time. All said, our waiter Brad was a stunning example of fine dining service. Caring to a fault and sweating with the exertion of holding a night's service together on his own, he is an example to other (younger) staff and should be duly rewarded if anyone with a brain at the Chateau actually reads reviews.
