I’m a generous reviewer but honesty is paramount: this place (in the former Nonna Rossa location) was a major disappointment and mediocre from start to finish. I’m not clear what the deal was with the server but it felt like she was filling in - regardless, it was not impressive. The food … I’ll start by saying the clams appetizer was tasty (and we liked the white wine sauce), though the clams were ridiculously small. They also made a pasta dish with the clams that was good. But, man, the chicken with the piccata was depressing and the veal parm an abomination (not sure what that was but it was no doubt a frozen patty that was like cardboard with breading). The final straw was the focaccia, which we ordered to have something besides the pathetically bland bread that came gratis … I’m not sure what they think focaccia is but it does not resemble slightly toasted pita bread. The cocktails were incredibly weak and mediocre. Not sure what they are going for here - seemed like an effort to resurrect Nonna Rossa, which we enjoyed several times in past - but Italian is not the way.
Excellent spaghetti Bolognese and the pasta was perfection to al dente. The owner was exceptional with Customer Service and came to our table personally. Highly recommend the food is delicious!
It is rsally difficult to give a review ... I booked online for Mother's Day dinner (which was advertized widely). I think the response overwhelmed the staff and kitchen with numerous people waiting. Our reservation was honored on time, but after 20 minutes sitting at a table without even water, we left and were promptly served at another restaurant close by.
