  • "How bad can it be?" Those were the words that launched our unforgettable Thanksgiving experience. I say unforgettable, of course, because this is one of those atrocious restaurants that's so awful that you feel compelled to stand outside and steer people away. I knew we were in trouble from the moment we were led to the dining room past a big sign reading, "NO PHOTOGRAPHY WITHOUT MANAGER'S APPROVAL." When you feel the need to post an authoritarian, unwelcoming sign banning people from taking pictures, you must have something to hide. The blackshirts who posted the sign set a dour tone for the rest of the service. Our waiter was flippant and visibly disappointed when no one at our table of eight ordered any wine. We literally never saw him again. There was no salt and pepper on the table, so I had to steal it off a waiter's cart. Our soft drinks were served in PLASTIC BOTTLES, which has got to be the tackiest thing I've ever seen at a restaurant. It's as if they ran out the back door and bought them at 7-11 when we ordered them. The food was entirely forgettable. At the risk of sounding politically incorrect, a traditional Thanksgiving dinner at an Italian restaurant might not be the best idea, but my mother-in-law is mighty Italian and she has no problem cooking turkey, mashed potatoes and stuffing. Real stuffing, not some weird apple-ly goop. The dessert station salvaged some of the experience, with a good selection of little cakes and pies, including a very creamy chocolate cream pie and mini tiramisu. My dad and in-laws came thousands of miles to spend Thanksgiving with us. Tomorrow we're going to have to take them to Firefly to make up for this travesty. At least we're all together...isn't that what Thanksgiving is about? EDIT: I forgot to mention that they have TWO things that NO restaurant should ever have: A bathroom attendant and a guy who comes to your table and plays music. No thanks! APPENDAGE TO THE EDIT: I think they polish the silverware with Barkeeper's Friend. I know this because the napkins smelled exactly like it. Draw your own conclusions about that process.
