| - When we left this restaurant everyone in our party said the same thing which summed up our experienced " we can cross this place off our list". I really wanted to like this place, but it was a literal disappointment. The place was beyond noisy and we could not hear ourselves speaking. The seating is crammed it like sardines especially if you sit on the half booth like seats. Since it took the wait staff over 40 minutes to bring out bread I expected it to smell yummy and be at least hot and taste amazing, nope not even real butter, hard crust, cold store bought bread. Then the real problems came along. It took over one hour for us to receive our salads after we placed orders. 2 1/2 hrs for a dinner service sitting on very uncomfortable seats, wow very long. The food was just ok nothing to write home about it was actually rather boring and very small amount, We went in hungry and came out hungry. Not much food very overpriced and nothing was really good but more on the boring side. Taylor the waiter was great and very attentive. Maybe they were having a bad night.
Another thing I do not like is when someone touches my food. If I worked for the health department, this restaurant would get a C if best because the owner who stands at the kitchen and previews each plate which comes out touches the food with his bare hands, he does not wear gloves when he puts your toppings on your salad and does not use a spoon, he uses his bare hands and it is disgusting and unsafe. He wipes his hands on a blue towel which is also used to clean the plates and re uses the towel over and over again. It is not very sanitary. The bread was terrible, the garlic risotto was pretty good a little on the salty side, the asparagus was okay along with the truffle mac and cheese ok. Like I said nothing to write home about, nothing tickled my taste buds and it was basically a very boring meal or rather half a meal not much on the plate. Came Hungry Left Hungry no wow factor but all the plates looked really nice. We will not be back. -
The next day, The owner Michael Rusconi called us probably trying to find the person who wrote the review. boy very very rude. Be very careful about dining here especially if the owner can not take diners reviews. He did not even apologize for touching people's food which is a no no in the restaurant business. I wanted something which tasted amazing and wowed my taste buds, not sure why this was do hard for him to understand. Owner is Very Very Rude. Be careful!!!!
