| - To be honest, when H and I got home from our first (and only) dinner here, there was not ONE good thing we could say about it.
To start, when the server came over to take drink orders, she looked at me, and I asked for just tap water. Off she went. H wanted a beer, but not only was he not asked for a drink order, she didn't even look at him. Weird.
We got our waters, and then H ordered a beer. Off she went.
H's water glass had lipstick smudges on it. Simply gross. I know they are hard to get off plastic, particularly, but can someone check this in advance? The manager came by at one point, asked how things were, and we mentioned the glass, and off she went to replace it. No major apology there, and she didn't seem like this was that unusual.
Anyway, we ordered an appetizer, pasta for me, and a calzone for him. Then, we waited. A VERY long time.
Finally, the appetizer arrived, and less than 45 seconds later, the entrees arrived. Not sure if the kitchen didn't make the app, it wasn't ordered, or what, but the sequence of service was horrible.
Our server came by to check on things, and we mentioned the app situation, and she said she could take our entrees back to the kitchen and put them under the heat lamp until we were done with the appetizer. Seriously?
To the food...to call it bland and tasteless would be a compliment. The pasta was overcooked, and the sauce was entirely lacking in flavor. It reminded me of Chef Boyardee from the can. A super treat when you're 4, not 40. His calzone - same. It was big and puffy, but not tasty, and with the same bland red sauce - phoey.
The entire experience was horrible - from the marginal service, to the dirty serveware, and the lousy food.
Oh, wait - I just thought of the one redeeming thing from the visit. Now we know NOT to go back.
