| - My friend was in town and I took her here for a fun dinner and drinks. Lots of tables were full with Christmas Party people, but we got right in on a Saturday with no wait due to some snow that was expected to come.
She got a glass of wine and I got a Moscow mule with a green tea twist, no drink complaints besides the fact that it took a good 10-12 minutes from the time we ordered them to actually get them.
I then got the Mac and cheese with grilled chicken and my friend ordered the Alfredo with a grilled chicken substitute instead of the shrimp. It took a while for our meals to come, but we weren't exactly starving or watching the clock because we were busy catching up. When they finally came, she brought the bread basket then too. It would've been nice to have that with our drinks, and it appeared the other tables around us did, so she must've forgotten.
I don't have any particular complaints about my
Meal besides the fact that it was $13 and then an additional $4-5 (I forget exactly) to add chicken. No side salad or anything included. So $13 for Mac is already kind of pushing it, in my opinion, unless it's the most amazingly cheesy deliciousness I've ever tasted. And it wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything crazy special. So adding some pretty bland grilled chicken on top and taking it to $17 was definitely not worth it. My friend liked her chicken Alfredo, but did comment that it wasn't a typical Alfredo like she was anticipating. It was a thin clear sauce as opposed to what you'd expect, a creamier white sauce. So it kind of caught her off guard.
All in all, it's the kind of place that is intended to be a fun, more fancy or special occasion night out kind of restaurant, and the prices reflect that, but the food quality does not. This was the gist I got from all the other reviews already on this page, but I wanted to see for myself. I would probably not return for a date night with my husband because the food was so-so and I know of other places in the area where the food is much better quality for a similar price.
