Beyond that, the food (a mussels dish with spicy marinara sauce and pasta) was good, except for the flavorless french bread and something that resembled whipped butter but tasted more like whipped vegetable oil that we were served before the meal.
But because of the possible gastrointestinal hazard of an aioli sauce and the lack of concern about it, i just can't bring myself to make this a 3
