| - Having been to quite a few Italian restaurants in my eating adventures, this has been a very mediocre experience at best.
I went on a Wednesday evening at 5:30 with a group of friends.
**Happy Hour**
The "Happy Hour" isn't very happy nor is the selection. $6 margaritas and mojitos is not really a deal at all. The Mojito I had was like lemonade with a splash of alcohol.
The "appetizer" options weren't really appetizers, granted they listed them as "small plates".
**Appetizer**
We opted to try the Arancini balls, they weren't very good, I've had better from the frozen food section.
**Entree**
Pork Osso Bucco was not what I expected, but hey, it's not a beef shank with that lovely marrow one would dream of. The best part of the plate were the mashed potatoes.
The pork was tender, but it's only saving grace was the beef demi sauce, it was not from the pork reduction. The sauce tasted more of a bagged beef gravy than a true pan demi glacé.
**Service**
The waitress was very discombobulated and didn't ask to refill my water once. She didn't advise me there was a $1 charge extra for the blue cheese dressing on my salad either.
The icing on the cake was when she "lost" my credit card. She finally found it after 10 minutes of retracing her steps, but still she misplaced my card in the first place.
**Overall Impression**
I "might" give this place another chance, since my friends seemed to enjoy their food. The lasagna I was able to see across the table, smelled great and looked the part too.
I hope they head my review and fix their "happy hour" menu. Maybe I am too picky, but it truly didn't feel like a happy hour menu.
