| - We happened upon this place while waiting for a film to start at The Royale. Ive been by this place before, but never inside. It definitely had the Italian bistro feeling.
So we put our name in for dinner. The place was pretty packed with many people sitting at the bar area and waiting room. We noticed there were many tables in the back with nobody at them, so we asked the hostess if we could sit back there and wait. She was kind of enough to allow us.
Soon enough, we were able to sit there and our waiter came by to take our drink orders. Within 10min, we also ordered our appetizers and food.
The food itself was pretty decent. My girlfriend and I split an order of fettuccine alfredo. We had also ordered some shrimp to start up. It was ok, but nothing amazing.
I would have given this place 4 stars, but what knocked it down to 3 was how long we had to wait. Once we were finished eating, our waiter seemed to have disappeared for a while. We caught a glimpse of him at one point, but he moved so fast, it was almost a blur. Finally we grabbed him to get our bill... but then it took even longer. I almost think he had to go to the bank to cash our checks. I dont know.. it just felt that way. Half of our party had to go back to the theater to get things started while the rest of us waited for our bill.
Id go back, but I would make sure I had time..
Good place, but make sure you have time to hang out and eat for a while.
