| - SCADDABUSH moved it after the demise of Alice Fazooli. Both owned by the same corporation. SCADDABUSH is Italian slang for a bit of everything, which is what their menu is all about.
Lively music, friendly server, large menu, average to below average food - sums up our experience at SCADDABUSH.
Appetizer:
Caprese $15.52 - Fresh mozzarella, Campari tomatoes, baby arugula, herb oil, basil, balsamic reduction was a hit! We both enjoyed the salad a lot. The salad was reminiscent the caprese salad I had in Italy.
Bruschettas Classico (Half) $6.77 - Satisfy our bruschetta cravings with fresh tomato, cheese, and basil.
Polenta Tots (Side) $4.97 - Deep fried polenta topped with cheese. Slightly dry. Nothing to write home about.
Main:
Primavera $16.47 - Pizza topped with Mozzarella, San Marzano tomato sauce, grilled zucchini, eggplant, roasted red peppers and grape tomatoes, caramelized onions, green and black olives. Again, dry seems to be a theme for everything we ordered at Scaddabush.
Tomato caper salmon $24.66 - Grilled Jail Island salmon, topped with white wine tomato caper sauce, crispy rosemary potatoes, and seasonal vegetables. The overall dish was exceedingly greasy. it was even greasier than John Travolta's hair in Grease. Strangely enough, the salmon was slightly dry even with all the oil. It also did not tastes fresh. Perhaps the salmon took a little too long travelling from Jail Island in New Brunswick.
The highlight of our meal was the DJ and the caprese salad. While I would not recommend going out of your way to try SCADDABUSH, if you are in the area and are out of food options, it's a mediocre choice.
