| - Although I feel bad for having to say it, because the owner is really nice, this place is pretty underwhelming.
The decor is nice, albeit a bit generic, but the service, food and drinks are less than mediocre. Starting with service: admittedly the place has only been open a couple months, but the waitress (really young girl) seemed to be more concerned with checking out the busboy than serving. Had to ask for a water 3 times when she kept returning to the table without it, she told us one of the sauces was a vegetarian brown sauce--but when we asked the owner (who brought out the food) she said it was a red sauce with meat. The drinks at the bar were REALLY weak, but priced pretty decently and the food was pretty good. Based solely on food, they probably would have gotten 3.5 stars, but service and drinks brought it down to 2. The chicken marsala was good, but skip the spaghetti that comes with it, try for a different side because the sauce tasted really old. Word on the street is the Greek side of the menu is much better than the Italian, unfortunately I went with the latter.
Perhaps, as with most new restaurants, with time and fine tuning things will get better. Let's hope so.
