| - This place was being suggested by 2 ppl that I randomly asked for advice. I went dinner on Thursday eve on a rainy Day, dressed nicely thinking the rain cant stop my plan, and was looking forward to it very much. To be honest I liked the food, but the service was HORRIBLE.
I think the waitress was mad at the world or she's missing a nerv not knowing how to smile. She came over n her tone of voice was like she's mad at us, cant wait for us to leave. Just her whole attitude pretty much ruined d dinner experience. My friend read reviews before we came and I heard ppl saying they had bad service, it was really NOT exaggerating. We ordered mushrooms for side dish, the server or some bus boi guy came and just tossed the dish on the table as he flew by. I saw the plate shifting on my table...lmao. Yeah he must be rushing somewhere lol. The mushrooms were delicious though.
Me n my friend both ordered "Sexy slow cooked Duck leg". NOT SURE WHY they have to call it SEXY because its NOT sexy. Its just pice of dark brown looking duck leg on a beding of mash potato. I understand sometimes restaurant make up names to make dishes stand out, but this name seems little "slutty for the "class" they try to advertise amount customers. Only while everything else has normal name n plain definition on the menu, that "sexy leg" just seemed very odd n funny. It was very comforting. The meat of duck was roasted perfectly and the mashed potato is really great to go with it. to my surprise it was very filling.
I would give food for 4 stars, and service for 1 star. I asked my friend who ordered the same thing, which duck leg dish was better between restaurant "Brasaii" n "Gio Rana". We both agreed the slow cooked duck confit we had during SummerLicious were better(I would give that dish 5 Star at "Brasaii") Over all, the food was good, I liked the place, its very plain but it has something timeless and laid back atmosphere. It's hommy n lovely. I dont like the price though, its definitely not for the service u get, and decoration is not exactly upscale. There bunch of small low tables and a few High ones feel like eating at coffee shop. I was at the High one at the very back conner by window n considering to be lucky seeing the rest ppl were "fighting" for space and waitress has to adjust her body to make way thru for food and bill. The waitress finally came to table to ask us how was the food, and her smile was so unsincere while her face was twitching, it turns my stomach. It's not one's privilege to think they deserve tip because they work there.
PS. I bought like 4 lb of pork tenderloin from Metro yesterday and spent 7 hrs making this pulled pork with apple n brown sugar thing. I made mashed potato as side, ironically I served pork on bedding of potato, it looked n tasted similar to the SEXY duck leg I had Gio Ranas so it reminded me of that dish I had a day. I felt bad for my friend who paid for it. It was not worth $90 with the service they provide. will go back to that restaurant if that woman is not working there. She prob just got dumped by her bf that day!
