Small location found in a store front between Kitty's Kafe and a Real Estate company.
Small interior, mainly with tables and booths that seat 4 with one table that sits 6, and a small bar setting. We came in at 4pm and was seated immediately.
The staff looked like they were having a bad day, not much for small talk, just straight to the point. Not rude, but not pleasant. The floor needed to be swept, the air vents are filthy, there were two tables that were occupied in there and three tables that needed to be bused.
A HUGE irritation of mine is when an employee comes in like they own the place, gets their own to-go drink and then leaves. No guarantee that they washed their hands before they touched the restaurant product. I almost left, but this place came recommended and the menu got me through the door.
We had the kids spaghetti, chicken spinach soup, lamb chops, ribeye, and the chicken parm.
If you want bread, it's a $3 up charge.
Daughter didn't really like the spaghetti because of the sauce. It was a little "tangy". My other daughter loved the soup. Those were the hits.
We ordered our lamb and steak medium rare. It came out well done and over seasoned. The asparagus was really good and the mashed potato's were super creamy. I enjoyed the veggies. The steak was terrible. I took a picture of it so you'd believe me that it was over cooked. The lamb is really "gamey".
The chicken parm came out looking like a rockstar. But the flavor was similar to that of a Fazzoli's. Or like a fast food pasta restaurant. The chicken was thin. I wasn't impressed. If I'm going to pay that much for chicken parm I need to be impressed by it. It costs less and is better at Olive Garden.
Also, they added gratuity to our receipt?? It was a family of 5. Not multiple parties. I'm normally a big tipper 25% or greater but not when you add it into my bill.
Im not from around here, but if I was I'm not sure I'd go back.
