Review content:
Went here on a Fri. night b/c this is 1 of the only restaurants in the Forest Hills area we haven't tried..Yes it was super busy, catering to a big party of 30 on one end and another party of 15 on the other, but it was exciting to go a new place that was so full of people laughing and talking...it was really loud at times, which could get annoying, but thats what you have to expect here on a Fri. night I guess...I know they were super busy, but it took about 5 min of waiting to get water, and another 5 min to get menus...My bfriend asked the bus boy to get them for us which was a little annoying, but it happens...shortly after, our waiter got our drink orders, brought the wine and disappeared. After 10-minutes of waiting, my boyfriend got up and went to look for the manager, but when he got closer, saw that he was arguing w/our waiter...luckily, another waiter saw he had gotten up and apologized and finally took our order...everything's still ok, b/c at this point, EVERYONE was apologetic and asking us if we we ok..Clams oreganata and salad were fair, and our new waiter was very nice and helpful....our entrees came about 20min later, and it was fair as well...I think although we were trying to have a great time and ignore the events, we really just wanted to eat and go..then our 1st waiter comes back to attending to us and tries to be overly friendly, but seriously we just wanted to go...but AFTER trying the chocolate truffle....heavenly choclate on a plate..all in all, I don;t think we will be back since there are other restaurants w/better food & less comotion. But they seem to be great for large parties...and I think they pay more attention to you if you are in a large party. If you are looking for a quiet place for 2, maybe not the best place to go.
Pros: Dessert, piano playing
Cons: Loud, service
