Hi and welcome to another episode of javing it with Javier. Let's see what we are javing today. To start we are trying out the meatball stuffed with cheese and bacon. For the main, I'm trying their chicken parmesan. Let's dive right into the review.
My girlfriend has been waiting forever to try this place again but wanted to wait for the coupons to come in the mail before going. A free appetizer? This must be good right? The meatball that came was filled with cheese and bacon. The taste was pretty good but the cheese was not well melted inside, so cutting into it the meat just fell apart while the cheese was insistent on staying in its sphere shape. I was most disappointed by the main dish. The chicken parmesan itself was good, but the spaghetti that came with it was so bland, I was for sure that the first time I made spaghetti (no name spaghetti with a jar or Ragu) tasted better than this. I tried adding a ton of pepper to try and revive it, but it was just way too bland to eat.
The service was good throughout the night, but our server did forget to bring us water when we asked for it :(
In terms of value, the meatball appetizer would've costed $15+. Good thing I had the coupon; I would not order such an expensive appetizer otherwise. The spaghetti here was also expensive, and I felt like the taste and quality of it did not justify the cost at all. The portion sizes we're also small which did not help justify the cost.
In conclusion, I would need to take into strong consideration when deciding on coming back even with the coupon. I expected so much more from this place. It is sad to see how the night turned out to be full of disappointment. That's it for today's episode of javing it with Javier. And remember food is life!
