Review content:
So for starters, I'm confused by the other reviews. Everyone notes that this is authentic italian, but then go on about how great the pizza is...? My wife and I decided to try something new last night have noticed this place a couple of weeks ago. We were seated immediately, the atmosphere was dim, but nicely lit, and service was great... until our waitress disappeared and left us for about 20 minutes after our food was served, and never returned. Another waitress actually refilled the cups, not ours. Now, the food. My wife's entree was fine...good sauce, well cooked. The appetizer (wrapped scallops) had a sauce that was ok, but something didn't work with the flavors.
And my entree, the salmon and risotto with mushrooms or something to that effect. First, who would cover up a nice filet of salmon anyway with a mushroom gravy (or whatever you choose to call it on the menu??)? Perhaps if it's overcooked...Ah Ha! And I know times are hard, but really, serving tiny filet's to people doesn't inspire anyone to return. So...small, over-cooked, and covered in gravy. The risotto you ask, not bad, but too much mushroom when next to the salmon. The dish overall was just unattractive. I do not claim to be a chef in any way, shape or form, but that was just BAD!!! What really kills me is the waitress returning to inform me that Bob felt I should pay the $17 for the meal even though I clearly only took one bite and pushed the plate away. Had the waitress come back and check on us to see how we were enjoying our meal, she would have seen it much sooner.... Unbelievable...I know times are hard, but really, getting over on customers can't be good for business.
Pros: the lighting...sadly, not much impressed me.
Cons: First time, won't be back. Ok service, Bad management
