Flight to BOS was boarding at 4:55pm from the A gates so figured a 3:45 slot at the restaurant would have been plenty — however even though the starter and drinks came out pretty quick, waited 40 min for the main (which also came out room temperature, go figure). The table next to me also gave up on waiting for the entree and went to catch their flight instead. Staff were very apologetic at least

Here are food pictures:

Maple old fashioned was ok:


Tuna crudo was very good:


Rotisserie chicken was meh and mostly room temperature when it got to me:


Also had another slice of the opera cake (server said the soufflé would take 10 minutes which I did not have)
We were on the same flight (DL107) & on the same day. There is a bit more walking when taking the D1 checkpoint, but the security check was a breeze - there was no one. I prefer that actually.

I went straight to the restaurant and had no issues getting my food in time (first photo taken at 1:30pm):

Sea bass with paper plane

Steak frites

Opera cake, photo take 1:55pm. All in all, service took some 35-40 min from sitting down.
