| - This is a tough review to write, as I really want Regent Square to be blowing up with awesomeness. Everything about this place is generally pretty awesome. Nice, comfortable atmosphere, good waitstaff, well lit...except the food was really bad.
It's almost like they were doing a performance piece showing the dangers of excess. My Cibo pasta was so rich, that my brow is furrowing reflexively in memory of the unbelievable amount of oil that went into it. We also got a dish that was so salty, that I sincerely think there was some kind of crazy accident in the kitchen.
Oh, and there's an insane 7 dollar 'uncorking fee' per bottle of wine. Unless you are uncorking my wine bottle with a fucking machete, or in some other elaborate circus manner, that dog just will not hunt, Monsignor.
The prices are a little high to give this place too many chances as well. I really hope that this place will be able to pull itself together, because in this town you either need to be good, or cheap, but preferably both.
