Women's bathroom is hard to find, and, shocker, another security guard on their phone unwilling to help. Prix fixe is a nice easy setup, paying ahead of time was easy as well. The fish was delicious and cooked perfectly. Good tasting, came out relatively quickly, nice and hot, nothing unexpected, nice big portions. The waitress kept forgetting basic things about our order (I asked for coffee 3 times), but otherwise everything was good about the actual food. He wasn't clear whether I should follow him, so I started to, and he told me to go back. Didn't tell us to have our vaccine cards/IDs out - didn't know we needed that until the people right before us were showing theirs.Ī man came down and demanded to see our ballet tickets (weird, because the people before us didn't have to show those), then as he got tired of waiting for me to pull them up on the phone told me to show them when I came down after dinner (originally the plan, but ok). The security guard was loudly yelling into her phone on facetime with someone else who had kids running around yelling. Nobody said what we were supposed to be doing (again, no signage here either, had to ask other patrons). We finally find it (it's a door that says 'employee entrance', by the way), and wait in a 20-minute line for someone to bring us to the elevator. We must've walked into 6 different entries, told different things by different, not at all helpful people. No signage anywhere throughout the entire Lyric Opera house - nowhere. One of the least organized formal dining experiences I've experienced.
