| - We had heard a lot about this restaurant, and were excited to try it. Upon arrival, the ambiance definitely did not disappoint. The restaurant has an embossed tin ceiling which gives it a lot of charm and character. Our waitress was efficient, though it didn't seem that the owner thought so. We unfortunately heard her making comments to, and about the waitress, which we didn't find to be professional. The owner was loud and intrusive, which took away from our overall experience at the restaurant. We ordered the bruschetta for an appetizer, and it was quite good. They also brought us a generous amount of warm delicious bread sticks with a dip that was of a Mediterranean style. It was very good as well. Other than the starters, we found our food to be rather average, which was quite a let down. We had soup and salad for our next course and they were both subpar. The wedding soup didn't have one meatball in any bowl, and the salad, while fresh, consisted only of iceberg lettuce, and didn't seem to fit with the rest of the meal. The house balsamic was also bitter and tart. We ordered the Cod Romano and the Seafood and Peppers as our main course. While the cod had good flavor, it was heavy and greasy. The seafood and peppers was unexceptional. And the fact that they only accept cash is inconvenient, regardless of the ATM on premises which is the first thing that you see when you enter the restaurant. We would probably give this restaurant another chance if it weren't for the owner. When we were leaving the restaurant, it became clear to us that she was gossiping about us to our waitress, who looked embarrassed. If anyone should be embarrassed, it shouldn't be the waitress. Needless to say, we wont be returning.
