Any Italian restaurant that also boasts “all you can eat brunch” is definitely a cause for concern.
The wait staff, hostess, and manager were all extremely polite, friendly, and professional. I cannot applaud their service any more.
The food, however, fell a bit flat. The bread for the table came with a side of smashed tomatoes, basil, and olives. However it tasted mainly like olives, little to no tomato flavor was present and the basil only showed through when I picked it out of the sauce and ate it by itself. I had the mussels and Ossobuco as my main course.
The muscles were delicious, and the bread served along with the muscles was good as well. It’s hard to mess up muscles, and they definitely did not. The vegetable/sauce left over was perfect dipping sauce for the bread in place of the olive tomato mixture.
For my main course I had the ossobuco. The veal was cooked to fall apart tender, which, in my opinion, is the best and only way to cook a veal shank. It was served over risotto, which was quite bland. I’d did not detract from the veal but slightly more flavor in the risotto would have been desirable. It was also ever so slightly undercooked. The vegetables that were served with the veal shank were over cooked mush, and this texture was rather off putting in conjunction with the already tender veal.
Potentially other dishes here are a winner, but the ossobuco didn’t hit the mark.
The atmosphere was okay, however the cement wall in the dining area lacked charm and only gave the dinning area an industrial feel.
Once again, I applaud the wait staff and hostess. They did an amazing job.
