| - I came here on Saturday night with my boyfriend. He made reservations and when we arrived we were sat right away at a corner table (LOVED the table).
The food...was at most...okay. The bread they had initially started us off with was extremely dry. The only edible part of the bread was the small amount in the middle. left 3/4 of it at the table. This was free...so i can't really complain.
We started off with the fried calamari. It was definitely not the best i've had. It just didn't taste good, we didn't finish it. We always start with calamari when we dine, so we've had our fair share of it. I read somewhere their garlic bread was good....I would've probably ordered that instead if given the chance.
My boyfriend ordered a chicken salad, I had their squash ravioli. He loved his salad....but its salad, its pretty difficult to mess up. My entree on the other hand was bland, i added pepper and salt, still bland. I took a couple of bites then packed it up to go and recooked it when I got home. I couldn't let it go to waste.
Our server was good. I forget his name but he managed to take care of all the tables he had at his section efficiently.
A couple other downsides. I had asked him to surprise me with a drink...as long as it had pineapple juice in it, I was game. It came to me tasting like a virgin. I asked my boyfriend to try it to see if he could taste the alcohol and he couldn't....I would like to taste, even just a hint, for a $9.00 drink.
Second, the guy who had come around clearing our tables had wiped the table with his hands. I know a rag and his hands probably carry the same amount of germs. It was just weird having his hands swipe the table.
I am a dessert gal....My fave part of any dinner is the dessert. Out of the 5...MAYBE 6 options on their menu...the tiramisu was the only one that sounded good, but I didn't get it...stuck with an espresso (i didn't see any cheesecake, chocolate cake, apple crumble..SOMETHING)
That's about it. I was very hesitant coming, especially after reading the reviews on here (not very promising). But the guy just wanted to give it a try, at least now we know.
