The first time we went to Tarbell's was fantastic. This most recent time was a disappointment. The wine was good, and so was my meatball pizza. Mom's seafood chowder sounded like it would be full of mussels and there were hardly any. Dad got the spaghetti and meatballs and he compared it to Chef Boyardee. The chocolate mousse was outstanding but the ice cream in the profiteroles was gelatinous. Also, in our reservation, I left a note to the maƮtre d' that obviously wasn't passed along to our server. She did a great job, but it was disappointing that we had to fill her in.
