   Service was awful. Our waiter greeted us, we asked for bottled water and then we never saw him again. We waited 23 minutes before finally flagging someone down who then sent someone else over to us and he took our order. He still didn’t bring us water. We had to flag someone else down to then finally brought us water. We felt so forgotten and uncomfortable. Never returning.

   I ordered the Piedmontese FiletMignon. Do not order this dish! Salty, sour potatoes tart! A joke! Full of Vinegar taste. My wife ordered the Rigatoni Dish. The pasta too aldente, the sauce full of sour taste, possibly soaked in Balsamic Vinegar. I cook better than this totally unbalanced PH food.

   Arrived early & was seated immediately. At some point the busser dropped a bread basket on the table. Note: we did not ask for bread. Server was attentive but we kind of felt like he needed to move us along & seemed a little put out that we didn’t order any alcoholic drinks. The food was excellent. We shared the calamari & Primavera salad as starters. We both ordered pasta dishes & enjoyed them very much. I looked at the bill two days later & now noticed they charged us for bread service for two guests. I am so ticked off by this shady deceptive activity. I am presuming it was the server not the busser who did this to boost the check & his tip. It makes me not want to ever return. This tactic has completely tarnished a delicious meal.
