Had dinner the other night at Mobys, Wednesday night, and had a reservation for 8pm, party of 7, and this place really ends up being average after what I was told about it leading up to it.
First off, the parking lot was packed tight, no space to leave your car, no valet or people to direct you where to go, so after a circle a few of us got out of the car and went to the hostess, the first one anyway, to check in.
She directs us down the cobblestone path, very dark, would recommend putting some lights there, to another hostess stand with 4 people waiting there, a crazy lineup, but we asked to be seated saying our party was parking, which they were, they ended up making their own spots.
We got a picnic table outside, which I wasn't thrilled about, even though it was a nice night it was super buggy, which was a theme for the evening, but others wanted to sit outside, so I obliged.
The waiter was very nice, and very patient with our group. We were probably his most annoying table of the night, but we did what we could to make it easier for him and we got the same meal, the Pesto Pasta dish, which was just average in the end.
The drinks were alright, nothing special, the selection on the menu really wasn't that great, that should definitely be expanded. However! I truly recommend the "Naked and Famous" that was delicious, and not on the menu, I just asked for Bartenders Choice, he flipped that, and it was special.
We had some pizza, a Funghi (Mushroom) pie which was oily but okay, and the Soppressata pie, very good much better.
Also, since the drinks weren't that elaborate, I asked for the Cucumber Cooler with Tequila in it, to spice it up, it was alright, very light and summery, good choice.
The whole night the lights were flickering on and off as well, like the power was about to fail, that became kind of annoying.
The music was chill, and the vibe was Hamptons to the max of course. Cuba Gooding Jr was in the house, and a few other fancy faces and rich folk.
Otherwise, at the end of the day, 3 stars, average spot, lots of other choices. Decent prices on everything though.
