| - So underwhelmed. So.
Upon finding this little hideaway I'd been pretty excited; it had the trappings of a hidden gem, and the waiter was plenty jolly. The appetizer salads were pretty decent, but upon trying the pastas, my friend and I deflated with that sad, slow fffffffshhhhhh of helium balloons with the air let out. The fettucine alfredo we each observed to be like mac n cheese with overcooked (to the point where the pasta is mushy and clumps together) fettucine, and the so-called carbonara was, in my friend's words, a sort-of-Italian take on cheap dry, chow mien with no noticeable cheese or cream and sad bits of egg. Even the bacon in it wasn't very good (and that, my friends, is very. sad).
The pastas are priced at $15-16, but I don't know if I even would pitch $4 for a plate of that quality. It was on par with mediocre buffet food. My only caveat is that I've been here once, so maybe the food is just completely inconsistent (I cannot imagine how it has positive ratings otherwise). I'll give a couple sad stars (like my sad food) for the service and the OK apps though.
Disappointed. Will not be back.
