In full disclosure, I went to this restaurant for a repast luncheon.
We arrived at 12:30pm.
The restaurant is huge and we were seated way upstairs. There was immediately a smell of fried food that permeated the environment.
At about 1:15pm, they brought out some pasta and sauce for each table and some water and soda. I didnt eat the pasta because I am gluten free.
Then at about 1:45pm, they brought out one salad for each table (it was family style). The salad consisted of iceberg lettuce, tomato, a little carrot and maybe a cucumber.
Waters/sodas were never replaced. Nor did we ever see a waitress between courses.
Then after scarfing down the salad (we were starving), they took our order. We had the choice of Chicken Parmigiana, Chicken Francese, Chicken Marsala, Stuffed Pork, and Sliced Steak. I chose the Stuffed Pork. It was supposedly stuffed with Broccoli Rabe, red pepper and Mozzarella.
At about 2:30 we inquired about where the food was. The waitress (when we found her) said that it was all ready and would be brought out shortly). LIAR!
At about 3:00pm. The food finally came out. My stuffed pork was dry as hell and there was no mozzarella in it at all. It came with a small dollop of mashed potatoes and some almost cold broccoli and/or cauliflower. I say and/or because some plates had a mix of both, some only broccoli. It was very inconsistent. The food was NOT WORTH THE WAIT AT ALL. In fact, it was pretty lousy.
So, to sum up. Terrible service. Slow kitchen. Lousy food. and a faint smell of burnt frier oil.
I have to reiterate that it took them 2 and a half hours to serve us food. We sat around most of the time waiting and complaining.
I WOULD NEVER EAT HERE AGAIN!
If I could give this place 0 stars I would.
