| - so this was my choice of restaurant for my birthday dinner w a few close friends . i had no idea what to expect .
it was loud . but in a good way . service was amazing and sooo patient considering that half of our party was about half an hr late AND it was extremely busy . they didnt give us a hard time about bringing our own cake either . no cutting fee ! if this review was solely based on service, they deserve 4 stars .
we went in a group so we were able to try few dishes;
for appetizer, we had scotty's meatball which i thought was okay and my bf absolutely LOVED . he kept on saying this is how a meatball should be . i also got to try their grilled calamari, grilled to perfection ! not too chewy, but not raw, & flavorful . now this, was exactly how it should be .
for pasta, i had the crespelle w roasted butternut squash . YUM ! the butternut squash filling was sweet, smooth & sooo good ! but the portion was tiny . boooo .
for main entree, i had the shredded pork wrapped w ribeye & goat cheese which was interesting, but again, i thought it was pretty mediocre yet my bf LOVED . however, the portion was tiny . 3 of them, about 1 1/2 thumb size each . the bf had the braised beef ribs . portion was a LOT bigger and it was ... omg heavenly . the meat was so tender, it just fell off the bone . so flavorful . as for the side dishes, we had sweet potato mash & asparagus . nothing to write home about .
so in conclusion, lots of mediocre dishes and some really good ones, but a lot were tiny portion . if my bf was writing this review, he'd prob give it a 4 . but this is not his review, its mine . so 3 it is .
