| - I've been wanting to try this place for some time and finally found the right opportunity. My daughter and I were on our way to a performance and Americano was on the way. We arrived at 5:15 on a Saturday afternoon. We were the only customers there, because they don't open until 5:00. Shortly thereafter, the dining room started to fill-up. We started out with salads....she ordered the Caesar salad, I ordered the wedge. The Caesar salad was pretty tasty, except I think the croutons were from a box. There was a lovely, crusty bread served as a starter that would have made for great homemade croutons. The wedge was also pretty tasty, except the next time I would ask that they hold the cranberries, didn't mix well with the other components of the salad. For our entrees, my daughter ordered the truffle mac n cheese, which normally comes with chicken, spinach and mushrooms. She doesn't like veggies, so she asked for just chicken. She was completely pleased with the dish. I tasted a small portion and must agree it was pretty tasty! I ordered the flank steak and frites, which normally comes with side salad, but was allowed to swap out for broccoli since I had already ordered the wedge. I ordered the steak medium well and it was cooked perfectly, as were the frites. The portions were ample. We finished our entrees, with no room for dessert (maybe next time). I will return to Americano.
