An over rated far over priced steak house.

Empty tables should have been the clue but I missed it. Service was absent probably due to boredom.

The setting: no bread and paper napkins in the restaurant that charges $60 for a steak. And don't expect the waiter to ask how dinner is because he doesn't.

The food: Ok. Two steaks were cooked as liked and their dinners were good.

Lobster Fettuccine was COMPLETELY without lobster. It was such a waste of money. The night was dampened by everything else it wasn't worth complaining.

The fourth meal was an altered pasta dish. I say altered because there are no vegetarian meals.

Sorry I have to edit the post. Dessert was chocolate cake. That is it. Take or leave it. We left it.

Bonus. NO coffee, espresso or cappuccino. Can you believe it! I've been to HoJos for a better time.

It is hard to recommend this place. The only positive was the two meat meals. But that is not enough to push it in the passing zone. Sorry it's not on my recommendation list.
Decided on Cibo for dinner tonight. Seemed to have a few tables available. We sat inside behind the bar in a quiet area but the a/c was blowing on us.

Service was good and fairly attentive. Somewhere mod-dinner our server was changed the new one was not as interesting and seemed a little fake friendly.

Wine list is very expensive. Nothing lower than $60. Markup always excessive. They should really offer something lower. So the wines listed are certainly not with it.

Food was great. Gorgonzola pizza was excellent for appetizer. New experience. It was awesome.

Dinners veal melinase(sp), lobster ravioli, gnocchi and short ribs ravioli were very good.

Dessert ice cream. Nothing special.

Overall a good evening.

Short wait for the table. All tables were full. Service moves swiftly. This makes it unfortunate if you want to take your time but good if your going to a show. Make a reservation recommended. Food was good. Quick service doesn't make for time for great displays of food but it wasn't all good. Dessert has a good selection. Only room for one bathroom on each floor. There was frequently a line. Overall the night was enjoyable and I would definitely go again.
