Slate - Elmwood Charter Twp

One of two things happened here. Either we were brought the wrong food (the table next to us ordered the same dishes), or their kitchen does not know how to cook. At first our 2nd course was taken to the wrong table, no big deal they replaced it in like 5 minutes. But the main course was steak and was brought out undercooked. This could have been a food mix-up with a neighboring table, they may have ordered ultra-rare. We were both mid-well though and I have included a picture so you can judge for yourself. It was too dark to see well, but I noticed that the meat had a gross overly soft texture almost like a mush. I would assume it was not brined as well, because it could have used salt, so the color is not from that process. Anyway I wasn 't able to sleep because I was so disgusted thinking about eating the raw cow that snuck onto my plate. I know some people might not find that a big deal but to me it 's dangerous and hyper disgusting. Regardless of the quality of the meat, which we only had their implication was actually good quality. It is extra unfortunate because cattle contribute so heavily toward deforestation, the rare times we try it have extra pressure on them. We are not the type to complain so just paid and left, but I feel it 's important to leave truthful reviews. If for no other reason than the restaurant can improve their processes.

Honestly? Amazing staff, great food, great atmosphere. I’d come back any time we are back in TC. The pasta is incredible

Service was questionable...steak came out medium well and server tried telling me it was medium rare, but lieterayy barely any pink... won't do it again!!
