I cannot read the logo on the top.
Nice warm and intimate photo!

Gourmet is misspelled -- unless Gormet was intentional??

I also cannot read the restaurant name.

Will you also provide Contact & Directions links? Those are the two main reasons I look at a restaurant's website. Somewhere small at the bottom will work. :)

very nice idea, but the picture in the middle needs some kind of effect, try feathering the edges,

HI...:)....the overall feeling is WAY to dark, a restaurants site should be inviting, easy to use......the liquid metal filter is neat, but it really is distraction in a logo(was this designed in photoshop? or illustrator)
most people go to restaurant site(like KHDZN said) for directions, menu....The name is unclear....

Okay, i will post a revision as soon as possible. Remember the home page isn't finished yet so it will most definitely have contact and directions =)
I will see what it looks like without the effects on the logo, and possibly try a different font.
The header and the nav is really the only thing that is done. I was planning on taking that photo out and using a lighter color for the body. I will repost when i can =)
Thanks all!
Edit: Also this was designed in Photoshop as you were wondering.

As you were told, the overall aspect of the website is that is too dark, and the restaurant's name is very hard to read. Try removing those lines in the header or make them less visible.
