When I heard the Wednesday special at Duet Bakery and Restaurant was 50 percent off their main…read moredishes, I was perplexed. Was it a clever marketing strategy to attract new customers or a way to retain regulars? I was curious enough to get answers. It was a little out of the way for me unless you are already in the neighborhood because you live or plan to shop at Kings Plaza. The restaurant was beautiful, branded (signage, menus, even glassware), comfortable seating (we reserved a booth), and offered mouth-watering photos of their food on the large TV in the back of the dining room. Although it was helpful (since we eat with our eyes first), it became harder to make a selection. Yes, everything looked good. Our server never introduced himself, he made some recommendations. The hospitality was alright. I ordered the 10 oz pan-seared Norwegian salmon, which normally comes with wild rice and basil pesto. However, I substituted the wild rice with creamy mashed potatoes. The fish was well-seasoned and perfectly cooked. The mashed potatoes were smooth, rich, and delicious. Yummy! As our party of four browsed the dessert menu, the majority of us craved the apple pie a la mode. We were disappointed that there was none, not even the carrot cake in a pot. I wanted to try something different so I opted for the Napoleon. It was good but not my favorite. We were impressed by the three scoops of ice cream (chocolate, vanilla, and pistachio), which were presented to our table on an illuminated ice block with grooves. Next time, I would like to try the Tabaka chicken under a brick.

Our server was not having it that night. From the moment we walked in to the minute we left, we felt like he was having a bad day and couldn't have been more annoyed with every single customer's presence. Not a great feel. Needless to say, service left wanting more. Would not return here just so I wouldn't have to interact with that waiter. Ambiance is pleasant. The establishment aims to provide a more upscale vibe, even if customers are dinning super casually on a Thursday night. $28 Mongolian beef appetizer was tasty--a bit too dry--more sweet sauce would've been in order. The portion was big--good to share amongst several people. The fact that an appetizer costs as much as an entree is nuts to me. $54 for 8 oz. Filet Mignon entree was standard steak house price but this establishment is not a steakhouse. Both our fillets were cooked to the temps we ordered. The meat was good quality. However. The entire dish was BLAND. Zero salt or seasoning in anything. What? Did the chef forget to add salt to everything?? The sauce would've been great if it was seasoned and had taste. Same goes for potatoes gratin and mushrooms and meat. This was bizarre. How do you not season food? $15 napoleon was okay. Not the best and not the worst I had. The cream was too heavy on the eggs and more of a custard consistency, not the traditional Russian napoleon kind. Big piece, though, so it's good to share amongst several people after a filling dinner. Would I return? For such prices, bad service, and bland food--no. Spend your money elsewhere.
