| - Oh man... what a disappointment. I came in here because I needed some comfort food, but I just left more upset than I already was.
First off, I should mention what I liked about this place. Their location is extremely convenient, they play all their shows off of Netflix, and there's comfy seating to go around. Oh, and the two guys behind the counter are friendly and really nice... now onto the stuff that really matters- the food.
I ordered the Funghi Fixation and a side of mac and cheese. Should fix any bad day, right? Wrong. The Funghi Fixation was described as a mix of different mushrooms with brie cheese on the menu, but I only saw and tasted your run-of-the-mill button mushrooms- not a variety. On the bright side, the brie cheese did compliment it very nicely and the cracked black pepper was also a good touch. It added a nice depth of flavor. The bread was also crisp and buttery like a grilled cheese sandwich should be :) As for the mac and cheese... well, I didn't taste much cheese. The pasta was cooked well, but the cheese was watery and almost non-existent in flavor. It was like I was eating pasta with a flavorless cream sauce. Very underwhelming and disappointing.
On top of all this, I paid $13 for a bottle of water, a pretty average button-mushroom grilled cheese sandwich, and a flavorless mac and (non-existent) cheese. I also waited an unreasonably long amount of time for my sandwich... about 15 minutes (customers who ordered after me were receiving their sandwiches long before I did).
I think I expected a bit too much from this place, but I was pretty underwhelmed and disappointed by my experience here.
