| - I thought I would try this place out with my friend, since it had great reviews. I guess I expected too much. When we sat down the server took a while to engage with us. I thought it was strange, since we were there when the doors opened and there was only one other table there. She finally came over and asked what we would like to drink. I wasn't sure of the wine, so she offered to bring a sample, which was nice. My friend ordered her wine and so we waited...and waited...and waited some more...and I finally looked over to see what was taking so long. Apparently, the server thought it was more important to stuff the menus than to bring our drinks??? I guess I got her attention when I looked at her with my unhappy face. So, she sent the owner's wife over to give me the sample and bring my friend her wine. I didn't like the sample, so I got another kind which was good. She brought over 3 small pieces of bread with oil. The bread was cold and hard. The oil had no taste. I didn't finish the whole piece. Our lunch was good, but you can't really screw up a pesto sandwich. It wasn't worth $12 when it didn't come with any side dish (no chips or fries). My friend ordered a chicken salad and it was rather large, so she was able to take the leftovers home with her. When getting the check, the server combined the tab (which really annoys me). So, my friend and I split the check 50/50. Still tipped them well, but was disappointed it wasn't a better experience. BTW, the bathroom is dual and I think it's gross to share when there's a urinal in there. I would not go back anytime soon. Sadly, I forgot to use the $10 off if you check in. Total bill for 4 glasses of wine, chicken salad and pesto sandwich was $72 not including the tip. I would rather spend my $43 for lunch elsewhere!
