| - Okay...I wanted to try this Italian Restaurant forever ..I made a reservation during Queens Feast and it was the day of the Ice Storm so we cancelled..so I opted for the day after Valentines Day. Made the reservation for 6:30 PM ...not many people there and we were seated right away...WRONG SEAT-Do not ever sit by the door..it was cold and every time some one came in ..it was a blast of cold air..put our candle out three times and then we stopped lighting it. We were served bread and pesto..a good combo for the table..different and nice. The waitress told us the specials and took our cocktail orders. We ordered Old Fashions. Then we ordered our appetizer of Fritto Misto. It was Calamari, Shrimp and Zucchini. It was okay..a little limp but okay- served with a side of marinara. A while passed , it was getting more crowded ( door opening and freezing) and our waitress was busy. She came back and apologized. She took our dinner order, another Old Fashioned for my husband a a glass of Valipolocella for me. I ordered the Veal Milanese and my husband had the Gnocchi in White Sauce instead of red. (Door opening and closing..more cold air). It took a long time for our drinks and dinner, we ate alot of bread. My Veal was not really Veal Milanese..that is a pounded out breaded veal-this was thick and not to tender breaded (chicken) veal. Covered with a mound of wonderful Arugula salad dressed in olive oil and lemon...the salad was good but overwhelming..the veal ..underneath was not the star of the show. My husbands Gnocchi was a small portion but the thin white sauce was watery and the gnocchi themselves were tender. ...we finished and once again --a long time went by before we saw our over-tabled waitress. I got the attention of a bus boy to wrap up our leftovers and find our waitress. (Door opening and closing). She came to the table after about 15 minutes, she apologized for leaving us alone with out service for so long. She brought the dessert menu but by then.. I was cold ( Door opening and closing) So we asked for the check...This is where it went really wrong...My husband was charged 18.95 for the 13,00 Gnocchi's because I guess, he changed the sauce from red to white ( door opening and closing, my nose is cold now) My 16.95 Veal was 18.00, no idea why I did not change anything. But the thing that really got to us was the drinks...We ordered Old Fashions, Bar Brand Brandy, but they charged us for Three Hennesey's.. 29.67 ????? Then Sweet Vermouth-3.00 - there is no Sweet Vermouth in a Old Fashioned, then a Splash of Juice - 1.50 .. you know...of course there is NO JUICE in a Old Fashioned.,.. so for three drinks it was 34.17??? Our Waitress felt badly so she did bring us two Chocolate covered Strawberries. We a paid the check , and left , because once again our overworked waitress was not around....( door opening and closing.). So Goodbye Fiamma ..hello Villa Franchesca which is a thousand times better!!
