text: After the wonderful dining experience at Terra Rossa at Red Rock Marinellis did not quite measure up I wanted to like it but many factors waged in a war that dissuaded me from doing sonnWe arrived for dinner around pm on a Saturday night with no reservations The place was DEAD With the exception of a couple patrons at the bar we were the only customers in the entire restaurant Well look on the bright side it will be a nice intimate cozy experience is what I was telling myself Instead it made for many awkward moments Our server was very nice friendly as was the Front of the House Manager and the expo that brought out our food cuz our server was busy insert dry sarcasm But because we were the only ones there everytime someone came to check on us they seemed uncomfortable like they were being intrusive which then made ME feel bad for them for having an empty restaurant Oh did I mention the kitchen staff was taking full advantage of the empty house and whooping it up in the back It was audiably clear expo had to come by our table to apologize for the noise I found it mildly amusingnnOh right The food bread basket and complimentary olives plate was ok again Terra Rossas was far more superior Shrimp Arrabiatta w linguini fettucini Alfredo were nothing to write home about sadly Really dull something your roommate would whip up nnSome pluses Very extensive wine list with a great selection of by the glass choices The restaurant itself has a beautiful layout and comfortable seating w plush high circular booths as well as low tables and cushioned chairs It is got a lot of potential so I still have high hopes for it Unfortunately it just did not deliver on this night
