text: The fiancue and I dine out quite a bit these days Nothing until this place has been bad enough to write about Wow this one takes the cake We came in about pm on a Wednesday night to split a bottle of wine and have a light bite From the moment we walked in it was like being on another surreal planet Our waitress a very young girl recently from NJ seemed to have never served anyone before and had never looked at the menu it seemed We vainly asked for some sparkling water some mineral water some Pellegrinoshe asked is that wine Huh nnShe did come back carrying small bottles of San Benedetto First hurdle overcome She had never opened a wine bottle either the fiancue had to do it The antipasto and linguine with white clam sauce were passable although some salami had been around longer than I would keep in my fridge After essentially waiting on ourselves and making requests that were clearly foreign to this young lady the real clincher was when at pm the whole place began filling with smoke The kitchen staff was apparently burning the days grime off the ovens and as one fellow told the fiancue the hoods do not work No kidding We quickly poured the last of our wine into our glasses and literally ran for the front door There is no exaggeration here They smoked us out Do not EVER try to sit in this restaurant in an attempt to eat We guess it is just a pizza take out joint but why the tables and dining room then A very lame apology for attempted asphyxiation and our check completed this disastrous attempt at a night outnnI really cannot even think of a reason to give this place star Maybe because they did not succeed in making us seriously ill Diners beware
