| - First of all, Ladies! If u are wearing heels! Please watch out as u step in! The flooring is not leveled that about 5 feet in walking into the restaurant, the floor raises by an inch! They put carpet over to "smooth" it but if u happen to land on the araised level , ur body comes to a dead stop and i almost flipped over on my 4 inch sttilatos if wasn't my bf catching me mid air. It's a major safety hassard, not sure how the restaurant just lay carpet over an "slightly" araised floor as if it's flat! It screems STINGY!
I do have to say the 2 stars I am giving is for averaging the good and bad experiences according to mine and my friends' experiences at this location. If u are ordering lamb chops, stake, ribeye etc. anything red meat, you are most likely going to be blown away by the deliciousness, but if you are ordering a pasta, sausage and sides, you will be disapointed becausse you'd have high expectaions from reading other's feedback.
I heard bad things about hand written menu. I didn't think was big deal until I got there. It's not only HARD to read in dim light since the person's hand writing isn't neat, also it makes matter worse while it's written in CAP letters while half names are in Italian! They had main course like pasta(IN ITALIAN) on top and appatizers at lower part of menu. UGH! When we asked waitor where was pasta, he kept going on about the "special of the day covering soup, appatizer, salad , lamb , wine...." He just wouldnt stop talking about things we didnt ask for. It's like u are expecting a 2 sentence anser but given a 2 min speech before u tell him :"I dont drink wine". ......UGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! N u CAN'T interupt his speech because he was talking SO FAST. So as I was bored I looked up at his face, he had his eye balls rolled on top of his eye brows like he was being possessed n literally telling us the entire menu of specialy. I knew he was tryign tell u where he memorized in incredible speed , he was talking fast like u are listening to an auction person speak on a bidding war. However the most important thing about pasta, he misssed out the most critical part, when he told us they had pasta with sausage, he meant pasta with "very GROUNDED" " sausage". Just like when u go to order Futtacinni Afrido with chicken in any restaurant, u expect get chicken breast not chicken bones or ground chicken. My companion was so underwhelmed with the pasta, it was under seasoned, with NO vege, and some sesame sized shrunken bits sausage.
I was told this is my friend's fav restaurant so I wanted to try. I ordered the lamb chops because my friend recogmended it before. They came out delicious! However I suggest you ask for salt, it had great flavor but didn't taste right, but as soon as I added just a little salt the flavor just exploaded in my mouth. Also they give u SO MUCH sause for the lamb chops, also they arent thickened much. A bit like freshed fire grilled meat sitting in half bowl of soup. I didn't mind it though because i prefer more sauce than too little sauce anyways. I am not into super salty food , so I know the lamb and sause were def under seasoned for salt. I guess I can say it's possible that happens to their stake n ribeye. But welcome to add salt ur own. I will give the lamb 4 stars from what I received, and 5 stars if seasoned right and thicker sauce.
I also ordered grilled calamari, it came with some dippings and tomato paste. However the calamari was bit too burnt. it had black charred substance all over the calamari on striking white protein. Its actually bitter and the ends of tantacles are all black. I ate it anyways though , just scopped more dipping to mask the bitterness, but the thought of burnt food is VERY CANCEROUS did bother me a bit. I was so hungry that I ate the whole thing and regreted, but if i ever order it again I'd make sure ask not to burn it or send it back. But still it's a good dish if it's not burnt.
They have AMAZING BREAD! The bread was supplied from cross the street a butcher shop called :".... and son" (sorry forgot the first half name). It's the FRESHEST flavor ever! Me n my companian both agree the bread was one of the best bread we ever had!
The place is VERY LOUD! Because so hard to hear, everyone speaks louder which makes the room more noisy!
At end of the day, we notified the busboy or the other server that we were not told the sausage in pasta was "grounded" , so please tell people it's grounded , also we calmly adviced the server the HAND written menu was hard to read in dark. He just went silent with obviously PISSED OFF grin on his face like he was very offended by our suggestions. He never responded to us and walked off with empty plates. .................................
My conclusion, this place is a decent restaurant for friends reunion, low key family dinner. Not place for work party, or romantic date. The service and decore bring down the overall of the restaurant rating. My honest opinion.
