Great food, not so great service!

Nice decor, mostly good food, but they take the plates away too soon! One person in our party was still chewing and his food was whisked away! My hubby went to the bar for a drink and his desert was take away uneaten. The calamari was way stinky, I couldn't get past the smell to eat it. Everything else was good, especially the chicken cannelloni and chocolate layer cake..The wait staff mixed up all the checks and was kind of slow and bumbling but overall we had a nice time there.

• Pros: The chicken canneloni is awesome
• Cons: not s good service, mixed up checks, taking plates too soon

ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE!

I can not believe how terrible the service is. My wife has at least one source which clearly indicates that management of the restaurant is writing posative reviews for themselves. ABSOLUTELY UNCONSCIONABLE!

Every time we have been to this place the service has been really disrespectful, and we have experienced racial discrimination by at least two waitors. We have never seen anything like this before and will never be back. Our server made some comments which were completely inappropriate and racially discriminating, and I will not repeate what was said here...its too shameful.

Our food was served cold and tasted warmed up. The salads were ok, but that was the only good part. our night was ruined. NEVER AGAIN!!! This place sucks!

• Pros: nothing
• Cons: rudest service we ever had!

Awfully RUDE service, BAD food! read the review...

Set there with a colleague, I ordered a sald a pasta. unfortunately one of the tomatos served as part of the salad was... fusty. Nevermind that, i called the waitress to tell her that i took a bite off a fusty tomato so without me asking for anything other than taking the salad away she called her boss (the owner i assume). The woman comes to the table and said rudely "I heard you wanted to talk to me" so i said "well, no, but if you're here, there was a fusty tomato in my salad, thought you might want to know" and she said, "I just tasted it myself, nothing was fusty." I didnt argue, I just felt so offended by the gesture, we paid and left. Right when we went away, a lady with her two kids who were sitting right beside and whitnessed the whole scene, stopped me and said "i just couldnt believe how rude she was", i will never ever get back to this restaurant, neither any of you... the pasta wasnt anything to write home about by the way.

• Pros: None.
• Cons: fusty tomatos in my salad, RUDE service, banal offering
