I heard about this place many times from many different people. It's a great idea to combine deli and restaurant this just doesn't seem to be executed very well.
The place is nice and comfortable. You can sit inside or outside. The staff is nice. You order at the counter and pay at the near by register. After paying they give you a number to place at your table so they can bring your meal.
So like I said, it's nice decor, it's cozy, and the employees are nice....
It's really just the food that's not good. We ordered pasta fagioli to share and we each had a sandwich. My sandwich was eggplant parm.
First let me say the bread was pretty great!
The eggplant was stringy and mushy, and the sauce was so sweet it wasn't edible. They brought the sandwiches before the soup. I guess it's not that big of a deal but it would have been nice to have the pasta fagioli first. Well, that is what I said in my head before I tasted the bowl of beans and olive oil the brought us. This was not edible.
The sandwiches come with a side salad. One of our side salads had a hair in it. Not ours. Not edible.
The mozzarella cheese tasted home made but not good homemade. It was extra mushy and runny.
Oh I also ordered a slice of coconut cake. It looked amazing! All of the baked products looked amazing. I had to stand in line again to get the cake even though I had paid for it previously. The first bite... Sadness... Stale.. Hard crusty cake.
They gave me the money back for the cake but not for anything else. I didn't ask though. Oh well, you win some you lose some. It's never fun to leave a restaurant hungry.
