I brought my parents for the anniversary tasting menu during their visit this past summer, and they loved it so much they brought a group of friends from Illinois out to try it a few months later. So when I saw the ad for the Thanksgiving dinner offering, and my parents were visiting again, it seemed like a homerun. \n\nSadly, we were all very disappointed. The menu was set and you were not able to order anything but the special menu--no substitutions. We all decided to try the Thanksgiving menu: 4 courses including soup/salad, pasta, turkey dinner, and dessert. The salads were great, and the pasta dish (sweet potato gnocchi) was bland but ok. The turkey dinner was horrible. The turkey was a turkey roll. No doubt about it, clearly heavily processed and more than likely frozen. The mashed potatoes had zero flavor (which was strange given that there was garlic chunks in them) and it was hard to tell what was saltier: the gravy or the turkey roll. \n\nWhen I spoke to the manager he stated that the turkey was fresh--the cook deboned the turkeys and rolled them--but it was obviously processed. When I expressed my disappointment, the manager stated they had sold 300 dinners and had no complaints. This was odd as we could clearly see those who ordered the turkey were not sending back empty plates. More than anything it's just a huge disappointment as we decided not to make a traditional home cooked Thanksgiving dinner based on our previous experiences at Ferraro's; none of us finished our meals this time and it's unlikely we will return. \n\nFor Italian food, they are great. But they need the stick to what they know."^^ . . "0"^^ . "2"^^ . "2016-11-25T00:00:00"^^ . .
