| - I think overall food is Salty but still good! Kid friendly, not at night (too tight spacing) but if your child is behaved well and doesn't run or scream, this is a great go to family restaurant. Not like Buca Peppo most certainly in ambiance nor cheesecake, just a mix of both and a touch of upscale with the wine glasses.
the little girl had her $4.95 kids meal served in cafeteria style glass plate. She enjoyed it like a grown lady with her wine glass of water instead of the offered plastic cup and straw. She got the grilled cheese which i devoured instead while she eyed on butter fresh baby green beans, apple slices, and frites (fries). The cheese is not cheddar so if you want that you have to request. I should have done that and thus the swiss ended up in my hips.
We started with shrimp cocktail ($12.95) and 1/2 order mussels (10.95). The shrimp was huge and served on ice, about 5 or 6 pieces. Too little for price! It was good and the only thing i was happy about was that it was smaller portion so we didn't have to box anything home. But if looking at value, it was overpriced. The mussels was good, sauce not as good as Brunos in Brea, Ca, and mussels were too meaty for my liking. Then again we are comparing Bruno Italian with Mon Ami French! How dare I !!
Entrees was new york strip steak (39.95) which was good but he got it medium, not typically his taste and so really the review won't be accurate. He liked it, i did too, we definitely got full from it but I cannot say much about it since i love seafood more.
Got the Sea Scallops ($19.95) which came in 5 pieces with brussel sprouts and cauliflower puree. I ordered side of mushroom ($3.95) which was good but too salty. The dish didn't need any sides. The scallops surprisingly made me full! Could be the dressing and buttered thing sin it that fills you up. It was soft inside and perfeclty seared outside. I was blown away!!
Will be our go to restaurant again. The bill for all and our carafe of sangria (about 5 wine glasses or maybe 6 depending on how much you pour) was $135.00 or so.
We came in at 5.45 pm and by 7:00 pm it was packed and butts were bumping into my face since we sat on table and not booth. It was too tight of spacing and dark!! I don't recommend high heels for older ladies. Hold on to your man or make him hold you when you navigate here.
Do It Do It, Mon Ami Gabi....let's go again!
Note: There is dress code, not strict...but don't come in all torn up! Your wallet may be torn up here but don't look that way!
