| - We have loved this restaurant for most of our relationship. We give them 4 or 5 star reviews every time and have spent many a paycheck here because we love the food and the atmosphere and especially love the new bar area.
We came in last night to celebrate our 7.5 year anniversary, sweetest day (yes, a week late) our anniversary of our engagement and our wedding (2 weeks ago). We had to cancel the week before because i re-broke my ankle. (BOOOO)
We sat at the bar and were greeted warmly by the host - hey! we come here about 5 times a year. And they knew it was a special occasion! And I was in a lovely air boot! The bartender, who has served us a number of times, was especially cold, border rude, and didn't want to be bothered. Our appetizer, somewhat of a charcuiterie came out ICE COLD - usually a meat and pate selection is brought to somewhat temperature, rather than slivers of ice. When I asked, he told me it just came out of the cooler and that was that. I was made to feel STUPID. I have had cheese and pate plates from many fine dining places and they should not be this cold and my question shouldn't be shaken off like I am a child. (i DO look young!)
Our main meal was pretty good, but skimped on the seafood this time for our pasta dish.
So, what was supposed to be an amazing and special night, was just bleh. I'm sorry, Giovanni's, i think you and I are done :(
