| - A new Homestead favorite! We made a reservation, but decided on a different movie and showed up early to make that work. They were friendly and accommodating, seating us right away and adjusting an errant spotlight that was pointed right at my head.
Service was great all the way through. Drinks came promptly and she offered samples as needed. She even came around and asked if we wanted another round before happy hour ended.
Food was great as well, though I'd definitely have ordered differently if I'd know how big the portions were. We started with the mozzarella stuffed meatballs. They were good on their own, but the side of sauce really finished the dish - could have used a bit more of that. The boyfriend ordered the meatloaf and loved it. The gravy was a reduced French onion, which was really good, though we both wanted to experiment with the meatball sauce. I ordered the pierogi dinner. After the appetizer and a glass (or two) of wine, I actually struggled to finish it - the portions are decent sized. I'd either skip the app next time or order the smaller plate of pierogis. I sampled all three varieties of pierogi. Cheddar was the best, followed closely by jalapeno. The beer one was my least favorite, with a bit of a bitter aftertaste. I'd order the other two again as well as the brussels, which were very good.
A little pricey for Homestead, but the food and service stood up, so I didn't deduct a star.
