| - This place was sweet and cozy. The service was impressive. Even though we were there on a busy Saturday night, we received full attention, from numerous staff.
The decor is a bit like being in your grandma's living room but it still had charm. The crowd was generally older, but as the night wore on, younger groups trickled in.
In appetizers, the gespacho starter was mediocre, using tomato sauce as the base rather than fresh tomatoes.
The rib starter was a winner, delicious and generous, although more reminiscent of korean style short ribs than anything italian.
The angus steak was delicious, and well matched with side vegetables, as was the Tilapia.
We had the creme brulee and lemon coconut pie for dessert. The creme brulee, as always, was a winner. The lemon pie was made with good ingredients and real fresh creme, though a bit too sweet for my taste.
Overall, a good place to go when you are tired of going to the trendy and just want to have a decent meal in little Italy.
