| - My niece picked this for her birthday dinner. Called for a rezzie - no reservations, come in and wait.Sis planned for 7:30 on a Sat. I arrived at 7, anticipating a short wait. The wait was quoted as 75-90 min. I only waited because this was a birthday choice. Waiting area was very crowded, busy with take-out, but then a party allowed their children to sit in the middle of the entrance/exit aisle - smh.....
Sis approached hostess stand at 73 minuted point(hostess quoted time)and was told in a rather surly manner that tables were running on time as quoted and we would be a few more minutes. We were seated around the 90 minute mark - I didn't check quote time.
Server was very prompt, knowledgeable and friendly. He did a very good job and was rewarded well for his service.
The food is just awful. Deep fried Man & Cheese was cold in the center, crispy Cuban rolls were hot throughout and crisp on the outside but doughy. Crab & artichoke dip was very strong/fishy flavour.
Entrees were not much better. Bang Bang Shrimp & Chicken lacked any bang, lukewarm, Chicken Chile was OK.......Factory chopped salad looked as though it had been factory produced - rather than chopped, it looked masticated, almost crushed and runny. One party member had Eggplant parm with some unidentifiable spag type side(zucchini pasta???) that was cold, unsauced and a little congealed.
We didn't complain about anything as we had already waited 1 1/2 hours to eat. Not worth an additional wait or the dreaded manager visit to the table.
Cheesecakes were very good. The rest of the party LOVED them. It's just not my thing.
Again, the server was great, but I don't really feel the food was worth it. The food rates somewhere on the lower end of mediocrity. I don't understand the attraction.
