| - I am complete shock. I've been here a few times but always stuck with generic pasta dishes. This time, we had the kid with us-who is picky. Now, please understand that I took a risk this time and ordered something I would never order in Little Italy.
I ordered steak!
It was amazing!
The sirloin arrived seasoned, cooked medium-well *perfectly*. It was very tender and I could cut it with my fork alone. I sliced it and gave over half to my six year old, and she LOVED it. Then she wanted even more. The way the Chef seasoned it and prepared it reminded me of how my Papa seasoned and cooked food. Like something right out of your own home. Not salty nor over-done, nor oily, nor drowned in butter; this steak made me swoon. At an Italian place! I'm being serious...I was just as surprised; this steak was so good, it needed no toppings nor béarnaise. The only thing was that it should have arrived with a steamed or baked vegetable instead of fried onion rings and a side of spaghetti. The onion rings were superb, but I prefer broccoli or un fried veggies with my meat. I didn't care for the spaghetti sauce, but the bread they serve here is good. Wine prices aren't bad, either.
The service from the waitstaff was great, too, although I must admit I was too distracted by the food!
Oh yeah, one more thing-I didn't see a kids menu, although that could be because I wanted to split the steak with my child.
Anyway, do yourself a favor and order the steak (or the salmon, which is also divine here, but that's another essay!)
