I had heard "Mallorca" mentioned a few times when I ask people about their favorite restaurant in the city. It had been on my list awhile and I was really looking forward to the the evening that I ventured over. Unfortunately, I didn't find that it lived up to my expectations.
The waiter was great! He was a fun Spanish character and even though I didn't really understand him, he really had me looking forward to the rest of my experience. We started with an appetizer of crab stuffed mushrooms. The crab was a little too fishy. Dinner was ok- I had a chicken breast with a lemon sauce- which tasted more like a chicken and dumplings sauce. Not a hint of lemon. The Sangria, on the other hand, was wonderful!
Now, I am not a conissour of authentic Spanish or Portugese food, so to be fair I should say that it might have been the most authentic dishes in the United States. However, I just didn't find that the dinner lived up to the expectations that I had for this place. I don't think that I would go back. For the price, I can get the chicken and dumplings at Cracker Barrel. But then, there was the Sangria................
