| - Came here for lunch.
As soon as we walked in, the service was little to non existent. The greeting server sounded like she was dragged into work. I guess I wouldn't want to come into a work place where the lack of organization is so obvious. Just with my experience, we had a different person all 5 times (taking order, bringing food, asking if the food was okay, taking away plates &bringing bill)
for drinks we popp'd it up with 2 cokes - the drink was way too sweet. The syrup was poured in and unfortunately no other option of drinks were given.
for our main:
Coconut chicken with rice and roasted peppers. - The 'vegetables' consisted of 2 tiny pieces of grilled zuchini and a few slices of roasted pepper's. The chicken 'breast' was a very thin slice entirely covered with a coconut batter. I normally like coconut but the sweet taste was very overpowering. They could've given me mush and I still wouldn't have known the difference. The chicken didn't stand a chance. It also came with a tiny bed of rice which I enjoyed. Coming from a background where rice is second nature to every meal, I can be quite picky especially if the rice contains no flavor. The white rice was cooked well with a mild flavor enough to provide the right content of oil without leaving any additional grease marks.
The side sauce (which is normally poured over the chicken and rice) that resembled pudding was accurately creamy and sweet. It had bits of red peppers in it which was a nice change to the consistency. I didn't mind the sauce since I choose it in doses but it would've definitely been too much if drizzled on top of chicken. The portion of this dish is way too tiny for a hungry customer.
The seafood Diavola was a seafood pasta dish. It consisted of jumbo shrimps , linguine pasta with spicy rose sauce. I liked the spicy rose sauce but I am not a big fan of my pasta tasting like seafood. Add that with my little preference to the long linguine noodles and it makes a less than average pasta meal. On the flip side, the portion is quite filling. I really liked the jumbo shrimps. The ends were cut off, which was nice to be able to eat without using your hands.
I wish I could count the "are the meals satisfactory" trip to the 1 star but to sadness of this place, it wasn't a genuine "is everything okay?". It was more like " are you done yet?". I get that you have 3 customers in the restaurant but seriously? 4 times is way to much.
The crowd was more or less the locals. Although, I imagine with the location of this place the customer traffic must not be an issue. It's immediately to the right of the parking lot and across the lake shore port.
The bill was $45.70 excluding tip. It's hefty for lunch and less than average service. I probs will not be returning.
