| - Delafino (I ordered medium rare) came out almost blue rare, but was still very good, despite the top 1/3 having much gristle--not fat, chevy, sinew-y gristle. The rub was VERY salt-heavy. It was a good steak, but not a fifty-dollar one. Maybe I just got a bad one. Others at the table felt theirs were worth the money. Service was some of the slowest I've seen. Just negligent. Server would come back with one beer. Then leave. Then come back and say, "I'll give you some more time to look over the menu--all this after we'd been at the table for an hour, and that after having been seated 25 minutes after our reservation time. Water and fresh rolls were checked and filled by someone else--he was excellent. Overall we were there three hours. No wonder it's hard to get a table here sometimes. Sides were good. Broccoli was just broccoli, but good. Mac and cheese was fantastic. Veal meatballs appetizer was very good, too...and actually pretty filling. Order it to share! Anyway. Pretty good food, but absolutely not worth the high-ish prices, based of off what I experienced. Overall okay experience, but probably won't return.
