| - Beautiful atmosphere, but totally overrated. Unfortunately, we went here to celebrate my hubby's bday, and when we left he told me that he would have rather gone to the Grand Concourse, LOL! I guess I expected fabulous--but everything was just good, nothing spectacular.
First off, our waiter was in training, and even though we met his mentor, she didn't seem to keep tabs on him. Small things were overlooked, like no coffee refills or spoons, tons of dirty dishes and empty glasses on the table. He was accommodating, but we had to ask for too many things multiple times. The one thing that REALLY IRRITATED me was that I saw one of the young waiters who was serving the pasta from the serving platters, stick his fork in one of the platters and shove the ravioli in his mouth as he was standing right in the door of the kitchen. Truly, made me sick--was glad my hubby and daughter had already eaten their ravioli. :-/
The food--Two of us had the pasta trio, meh--the ravioli was good, not so much for the other two dishes. One of us had the cannelloni and ate it all up. One of us had the pork loin dish--it was dry but tasty. And then I had the lemon chicken. It was actually good, right up my alley with bright notes of lemon and caper! But, my favorite thing was the antipasta bar--the dessert bar was little to be desired.
We will not be back.
