    The pasta was undercooked. I cook a lot, I know al dente, this was way beyond al dente. They missed one of our appetizers. When the bill came, we gave them our credit cards (splitting the check), the waiter took them, came back 5 minutes later and told us we didn't give him our credit cards yet. We assured him we had, he AND HIS MANAGER doubled down on the we didn't give them to them only to find that the cards had fallen out of the sleeve and onto the floor. Will not go back.

    Sadly, this was not a good experience for my partner and I. It was our anniversary, we’re two women, and it took an obscene amount of time to get our food. three more tables were seated after us and received their food before us. We asked our serve twice to check on our meal and he came over once on his own to let us know he nudged the chef to hurry. I don’t want to think that the poor service was a reflection on the fact that they were serving two gay women, however, it’s hard not to think this was the case. In addition to the food coming out so long after we ordered, the quality of food was not worth what we paid. Very disappointing experience and I do not recommend this restaurant.
