| - Man oh man I wished we looked at the reviews before coming here. There was a large group of us so we thought it'd be great to buy a discount at the "half price" ticket booth for shows and dinners. Well, it was not quite half price (25% off purchased at $3 pp), but we figured that still shaves off some $$ (at least service) from the total bill.
The prices were not crazy, about $20 for pasta and $40 for steak. We were hopeful.
The service was not bad; wish I could say the same about the food!! We had caprese salads and Kobe beef carpaccio as appetizers, and pasta as the main. Ack ack ack. They were actually really bad to the point where I wished we ate at Outback, and I'm not a fan of restaurant chains.
What was so bad you ask? To sum it up, flavorless. There are supposed to be explosions of fresh herbs and cheeses when you taste Italian food! The sauce on my pasta was just salty, but there was no distinct flavors. The chicken was so overcooked that I felt like I was chewing already-been-chewed jerky, you know, the meat left over that you've been chewing for hours but you still can't get it to a swallowable texture. I could do better with a box of penne and a bottle of Ragu at home.
The girl that helped us pick out this restaurant beamed that this was an excellent choice and that there are beautiful cars to look at while eating. We thought this place would be classy. Yes, there were nice cars in the room, but the decor around it was not tastefully complementing the cars. They looked like they didn't belong. We really were in just a room with no decor and a few cars. Awkward.
