VIBE
I was here for a Christmas lunch so I can't really comment on the patrons (nor was there any around). The space is pretty big with a back area for playing pool. Unfortunately, the service was not the best. There was no water at our table or mention of until we requested it. We weren't told what wine we were having. Our waiter knocked over wine twice. The music was also on loud but it was turned down at our request. I'd come back here for playing pool and drinks if I was in the area.
Note: down the alley way near Alley Cats at the back.
WE ATE
We had a pre-fixe menu. We had a mix of fried calamari (ok), bruschetta (also ok) and salad. Romaine lettuce with balsamic vinegar does not a salad make!
We had a selection of mains. I had a the chicken risotto. No flavour and not creamy as advertised! The penne with chicken tasted a bit better. The best part was the tiramisu. It was the perfect size!
OBLIGATORY CATCHY REMARK
It's not amore! Sorry. I think it's more bar than restaurant but for my money, I'm not buying the food here unless it's a mini dessert as a night cap. But I'm glad I tried it.
