| - I went to Cafe Really with the lady for lunch. We were greeted by a hostess who told us there would be about a 5 to 10 minute wait, even though there were plenty of tables visibly open. (REALLY?) Hmm, ok. Later after I noted another party of two that had arrived later was seated before us, she couldn't remember who we were! (REALLY? -- do ya get it? Ok, I'll stop.) Anyway, after that we were finally seated.
I ordered the meatloaf -- a mix of Angus beef, ground pork and lamb wrapped in bacon which sounded interesting enough to warrant a meatloaf order. It came with mashed potatoes and sauteed vegetables. The meal was good! The potatoes were a bit buttery but I was very impressed with the meatloaf. Again, anytime you can associate the words "interesting" and "impressive" with meatloaf, you're doing a good job!
The lady ordered the portabella sandwich. It came with their macaroni and cheese, which was basically penne pasta with some cheese sauce on top, not even mixed in. Bummer. The sandwich looked very filling though and she seemed to enjoy it.
Our waiter was fine, but they need to get their hostess/seating situation in order. There's no need to have multiple parties waiting when there are plenty of open tables available. We will be back to try out their breakfast options, and hopefully we just caught them on a bad day for service.
