| - I have always been a big fan of great pork chops; so I tried their pork loin dinner (Saltimbocca di Maiale), hoping I'd get something close (considering the price), maybe even a "pork prime rib" type of dinner. Imagine three, rather small, very thin, tough, chewy, insipid, very slightly pork flavored, luncheon style meat slices, covered by a slice of bland mozzarella, topped with a couple of small quartered, baked potatoes (the best part of the dish) in combination with a fried, sour (pickled?), onion mixture on top. The sour onions clearly detracted, rather than added anything to the dish. My wife thought the pork dish was decent (she was very hungry), which was good, since I could only down ~1/2 of it. Their bread and the calamari appetizer was very good. The service was great. I think that pork loin dish needs deletion from their menu and a complete rebuild with some decent pork (and forget the sour onions).
