Well, I'm 5 years out of college (sigh) and this place made me aware of the fact. This place had "undergrad-boner" written all over it, which isn't bad. Junior year Erin would have just died to have this place in my college town to cavort to with girlie-friendsies. Just something to take note of if you're in the dreaded "middle-late twenties" like me. (A term I coined because I refuse to grow up. Wah.)
It was all simply *OK.* The red sangria was *ok* (I know they had signs up about how their white sangria is award-winning and maybe I should have gone with that but...meh), the service was *ok*, the ambiance was *ok* (Trying a little too hard but no doubt impressing the 12-top of 21 year olds having a girls night out.)
The pizza was pretty tasty, but the Garden pizza, which sounded amazeballs with "roasted zucchini, sauteed mushrooms, red onion, white cheddar, blue cheese and arugula tossed in balsamic reduction with white truffle oil" was a bit underwhelming. Let's see...
- Zucchini, mushrooms and onion: BARELY there. Maybe one piece of each on each slice.
- White cheddar: Indiscernible
- Blue cheese: Yay, I could taste it! And I'm a big blue cheese fan so this was good
- Arugula: Yay, tons! I'm an arugula fangirl so this was another plus. "tossed in a balsamic reduction?" More like "barely drizzled with bals vin.
- White truffle oil: None. Sniffle.
I could be persuaded to go back for the bruschetta boards and more wine, but as it stands it just wasn't the stellar experience it had the potential to be.
