| - We used to go here often and recommend it, but after several off meals I think we are done. I heard they had a new menu and husband wanted wings, seemed like we should give it another shot. We arrived at 7:45 in a Friday and told a 30 minute wait. The bar was crowded and we enjoyed the good craft beer list. We watched several parties come in and leave after being told the wait continued to be 30 minutes, by now it's after 8:00? After more than 30 min we asked how long and were told we could be seated right then. Did they forget us? The dining room we were seated in was empty, only 2 other tables were occupied? Why the wait and turning people away? The server was prompt and great. We ordered more beer, the sprouts and our entrees. The beer and sprouts were served quickly and we enjoyed them. Sadly, that was all we enjoyed. After a 20 minute wait after the apps were served our food came. The wings were cooked, but barely. The skin was so rubbery it had to be removed to get to the Chicken. What little sauce there was was in the skin and chicken had no flavor. They were unappetizing and we did not finish them. I ordered the carbonara. I love this dish when made right and I read the description several times to make sure the description promised carbonara and not Alfredo sauce. He description did promise carbonara but that is not what I received. The delivery server asked who had the Garden party, which was the first inkling it was wrong. I said Carbonara and he quickly said yes, that's it. Wrong, it was a mix of the two. Orochetti pasta, with a cream sauce, with the peas and bacon of the carbonara. Either way it was terrible. No flavor at all, cool temp, and tiny portion. Not just small, kids size. The waiter asked how the food was, normally we let it go but this time we did not. He handled things well, as did the manager, but the outcome is the same. Vinyl Pi we won't be back.
