| - Like most people probably i went here because I wanted to see what the Kitchen Nightmares hullabaloo was really all about. Samy was on the floor "managing" things, and I saw Amy in the back briefly but she didn't come out front. Samy is REALLY intense, but his heart seems to be in the right place. It really does seem like he wants everyone to have a great experience. His intensity, I think, might simply be cultural, and I would encourage anyone who goes to be patient and know this. I did watch the show and it seems like Amy is a nut case, but it's reality TV, and the producers could probably make Mother Theresa look cray, so I took that with a grain of salt. The pastries looks UNBELIEVABLY delicious!!! If I wasn't trying to lose weight I would have eaten everything in the case. I had a caprese salad which was fine, but it was July which, to me, means that the tomatoes should be amazing - these tomatoes looked and tasted like they were bought at Safeway and never really ripened. It was soaked in a little too much dressing as well. The mozzarella cheese at least was fresh and delicious, but that was about it. Overall it was fine, and I would recommend trying the pizza that looked delicious, but I'm not sure I'd go again.
