Braxton's Restaurant Bar - St Andrews

I tried the eggplant couscous dish at this restaurant and it was amazing. The dish came with crispy kale and cherry tomatoes. I requested for tofu to be added, and they happily obliged. It was a delicious and healthy meal.

While the vegan and vegetarian choices are limited, the staff and kitchen are accommodating. The quinoa dish is delicious.

We have dined at Braxton's at the Algonquin on multiple occasions. Unfortunately, our recent experiences have shown a decline in quality. Our waitress was excellent and tried to compensate for the restaurant's shortcomings. My wife ordered a new pasta dish which, although tasted alright, arrived cold. I opted for the ribeye, which came with fries (my oversight, as I would have preferred a potato). Regrettably, the fries were also cold and the ribeye was disappointingly thin. The dish lacked vegetables and seasoning, with the steak being served on a plain white plate. To make amends, the restaurant offered us a complimentary dessert. However, the tart and cheesecake appeared as though they had been sitting in a display case for a prolonged period of time.

In general, our experience at the restaurant was decent. However, we were disappointed with the limited vegetarian options available. Despite requesting the mussels without sausage, they were served with pork instead. The service was very friendly though.

We ordered a $55 bottle of wine from the menu, but were charged $75. When I asked about it, I was told that the wine's price fluctuates and may not always match the menu. I was not pleased. However, the next day, I received a call from both the food and beverage manager and the General Manager. They more than made up for the discrepancy and I was very satisfied with how they resolved the issue.
