A triumph of style over substance. Walking in the place had a positive vibe, much better than it's strip mall (albeit upscalish strip mall) location. We'd perused the menu before going and it looked good. My wife ordered crab stuffed shrimp and the house chopped salad. I ordered the Italian cold cut sandwich. A basket of bread, very good bread, arrived quickly.
The waiter ordered the wrong chopped salad so I won't comment on that (hey mistakes are human). The crap stuffed shrip was tasty but small. This is the menu description: "Crab Stuffed Shrimp baked with a seasoned king crab stuffing & served scampi style." It's kind of hard to stuff a rather small shrimp and although there was a fair bit of stuffing I didn't see much crab.
My Italian sandwich was a little thin on the cold cuts. This is the description: "Italian Cold Cut cappiccola, genoa salami, ham, imported provolone, topped with hot peppers, marinated onions & tomatoes." I'm pretty sure I saw three slices of meat but maybe there was more. The biggest problem was the over abundance of balsamic vinegar that overpowered everything else. Frankly I've had a better Italian cold cut sandwich at Capriotti's.
Too bad because it looked like a place one could linger over a meal with your partner and some decent wine.
