We came here on a Sunday night at 6:30 with a party of 11 of us. The hostess took us to a table upstairs, which I indicated would be extremely difficult for my 85 year old mother with her bad knees. This is a very large restaurant and there were a very significant number of empty tables on the main floor that would easily have accommodated our party. I spoke with the manager who refused to move us downstairs. He said we should have requested the main floor, but as we had never been to the restaurant there would be no way of knowing they had seating on two floors. During the 2 1/2 hours it took them to serve us our meals a large number of empty tables on the main floor remained empty. While our server was very attentive, it did not compensate for what turned out to be for most of us, very bland, tasteless food. Next time we are in the area we will go to La Vecchia, where the food, and most certainly the service are far superior.
