In the last 6 years we have dined here many times. This may well be the last time. We asked for a table away from the door. When we arrived, they showed us to a table in the direct path of the cold air from the door. We asked to change, but they said they had all the tables booked with reservations. So we sat, and watched the other tables away from the door remain empty all evening. The menu hasn't changed in ages and has gotten quite boring. The evening's entertainment was a cellist who sawed away at his instrument to create screeching sounds that were quite unpleasant (and our table was close by, unfortunately.) Service was okay, but once again we felt unappreciated and mostly ignored. The person who seemed to be the manager looked extremely bored and never came to our table. I will say my cocktail was very good. The food was meh, and they charge $4.00 for bread. All in all, a VERY disappointing experience, and this is not the first time. Used to be a favorite for us, but not any more.

We made a reservation for the Wednesday price fixed dinner but after we ordered were told they were out. This was 7:00. Disappointed. Other food was OK but not great or what we expected. Things seemed off. Spent more than planned and wish we had gone to Prairie Star instead

We had eaten at 2 other M'Tucci restaurants and this was our first time at the one closest to us (Coors and Montano, NW). We decided to try their Wed. night special at the bargain price of $30/person. We made a reservation about an hour ahead and were glad that we had. The restaurant was quite full. There were no choices on the special and no substitutions. I probably would not have ordered any of the dishes on the special but we were pleasantly surprised and pleased. The appetizer was a bruschetta topped with mussels. My husband adored this. I thought it was very good. It came with a small glass of a pleasant chardonnay. The main course was hangar steak with roast potatoes. I asked for mine to be cooked medium rare, I was told, you couldn't specify how you wanted it cooked, on the special. Our steaks came out medium rare and were exceptionally tender and flavorful. This was served with a small glass of Cabernet. Dessert was a pumpkin swirl cheesecake. This was the weakest of the courses but we still ate every bite. It was served with a moscato dessert wine. All the portions were small but we didn't leave hungry. Service was excellent in spite of how busy it was. We definitely will return for the Wed. special and will try other things as well. This may become our go to local restaurant.

This is my favorite spot, but last night we were served cold pasta dishes that were mediocre at best. This place is normally awesome. I’m not sure what happened!
