text: Meh nnWe were able to get a reservation to Up but when we arrived we found that we did not need it because the place was practically empty for dinner around pm The decor was sparse and was bright but they did bring the lights down about halfway through the meal It had a nice urbanmodern look but if the restaurant were full it may have been loud when full and with the music Up did not feel as crowded as other restaurants in the area I appreciate that they laid out the floor plan in a logical way instead of a let us see how many tables we can cram in herewaynnOur server was kind attentive and informed about the menu The service was the best part of the mealnnWe got Pate for an appetizer It was okay with interesting flavors but I would not get it again I had the Bolognese and my partner had ravioli The pasta was slightly undercooked My portion was adequate but the ravioli portion was small They were both Meh too I thought there was a lot of sweet flavors incorporated into a meal I expect to be more savory The presentation for the pate was not very good but the others were presented better but not to a level that one would consider elegant There was not anything bad about the food but it just was not good either Needless to say despite the portion size our plates were left about half full and we did not bother with a togo box Although we usually get dessert based on the appetizer and the meal our expectations were too low nnThey were transitioning to a new menu at our visit so perhaps the chef has not refined the menu yet
