Just back from our first visit to Limestone. In view of all the hype, I must say we were somewhat disappointed. For starters, the smell of sewer gas was prominent in the parking lot and in the bar area when we arrived. Maybe we should have left, but we decided to stay. Probably beyond the control of the restaurant anyway. Secondly, when I made reservations online earlier in the day, I was told there was only availability at 6:30 or 8:30. I preferred 7:30, but settled for 6:30. The entire time we were there from 6:30 to 9:00 the place was nearly empty except for a private party in the back room. In the main dining room, there was never more than 6 tables occupied. (This was a Saturday night.) Why the restrictions on the reservations ? The service was spotty despite the fact there were a couple of servers standing around with nothing to do. The food was in desperate need of some seasoning.....very bland. All four in my party agreed. Bottom line, definitely not worth the price. Oh, and by the way, my credit card receipt had all 16 digits of my credit card number displayed. I thought merchants were not supposed to do that these days ?
