The disappointing cons- daughter and husband had chicken Alfredo. Husband said it was really bland compared to the 1st time he had it during our date night. Daughter tells me in Italian “mamma, la pasta ed il pollo non hanno sale”, because she did not want to upset any workers, pretty much pasta amd the chicken are without salt. I ordered the muscles with white wine. Unfortunately they were not clean– had the “beared around the shell and inside, as well as sand”. I asked the waitress if these were frozen and pre-cleaned or needed to still be cleaned. She just answered that was strange. Informed her I was not going to eat them because did not want to risk getting sick. She shrugged and took it back to the kitchen. She did take it off the check, which I appreciate. I guess I was just disappointed that the chef/owner didn’t bother to come to the table, to apologyze or something.It was toward the end evening and there were only 2 tables. I grew up in the gastronomy field– granted it was in Europe so maybe different customs– and have dined at several high end restaurants, both in US and other parts of the world, and it was strange to me that owner/Chef allows uncleaned mollusks to be served (which can happen because we all make mistakes) and does not go to the table to apologyze for the mishap.
2 servers were not enough to cover a full restaurant. Needed a food runner who could deliver the food and refill drinks. Service suffered because they were constantly in the weeds. It was very obvious some of the patrons were regulars because they received better service and more face time with the servers.
The food is where there is a big problem. I’m a white guy from Texas and I can make better aronchini. The word we decided to describe them was “stodgy”. Dense, under seasoned, and a crust that was pale. The fried zucchini and calamari was mid, with the calamari itself being tender. But the entrees? Both pasta plates came out lukewarm. The torteloni with peas and prosciutto was a huge disappointment. It tasted like many a frozen meals I’ve had in the past – and, no, I’m not being hyperbolic. If that pasta is made in house, I’ll eat crow. The burratta on the other pasta dish was tough and not supple. I will say, their marinara sauce is obviously homemade and tasted great.
I waited tables for a decade putting myself through college and understand being understaffed on a busy night. Maybe this was an off night for both front and back of house, it happens. But you’d have to pay me to go back after this experience, especially with other great Italian places just few miles away that have better food and service at a lower price point.
The pasta was excellent the next day as leftovers as well.
The restaurant is smaller than most. Other than a lady at the bar, we were the only ones there. Hannah took us to a table where we started discussing the menu. I imagined Hannah thought I was going to be high maintenance when I asked if the sausage was flavorful since our last experience at another Italian restaurant was very disappointing.
We chose the Caprese Salad as an appetizer and Italian Cavatappi and Vitello Saltimbocca along with a bottle of wine. I was hesitant because one of the last places we went, the sausage had no flavor.
Fortunately, the dishes did not disappoint. The marinara was a little thinner than I am used to, but I used the bread to help soak it up and enjoy it. So maybe that was the plan.
Dessert came with a Chocolate Mousse Cake and Crème Brûlée.
I got the feeling this restaurant had a few regulars, about four tables came in and the gentleman behind the bar seemed to pay extra attention to them.
All in all, the service and food did not disappoint and we had a fantastic evening.
