A: Wow... That's all I can say.. And I mean wow as in how could someone possibly eat this food? We walked in and were greeted by a grumpy woman. We got no Hi or Hello. As soon as we walked into the main restaurant, it was all monotone. It was all brown and beiges and extremely old. There were about eight others in the restaurant, so that was definitely as bad sign. A customer was walking back to her table and across the restaurant yelled " Oh my gosh I just ripped a huge one in the bathroom". We were disgusted. We were immediately served bread and given menus. Bread was okay.. wasn't warm and we were given hard butter. The butter would have been nice to add to the bland bread we were given. We receive our food and the presentation was not impressive, as the waiter had previously stated. Two of my family members ordered the veal and chicken piccata and both sauces looked completely different. The chicken was tough and tasted horrible. Someone else ordered the special, veal and cheese stuffed ravioli in a red vodka sauce. The sauce was hot, but once the ravioli was cut, I knew it was out of a package. The middle was completely cold and the pasta was chewy. It was so obvious everything was NOT homemade. Someone else ordered the fettuccine alfredo with chicken. It was very gloppy and looked like it came out of a package as well. The chicken tasted like it was freeze dried and made for NASA. The meal was completely awful and the prices are sure as hell overpriced. I would never tell anyone to eat at this place. The chef should try his/her food because it is horrible. I was tempted to enter this restaurant to be on Restaurant Impossible so Robert Irvine can redo the decor to lighten it up and to fix the food so it is edible. If the restaurant used real chicken, those chickens would be running out the door because the food is that bad. I thought I had gone to an Italian restaurant, but there was no Italian food that I tasted. All we got was the expensive bill for microwaved food and chronic diarrhea. This deserves two thumbs down and a pink slip.

A: **NOTE- the owner did send me a private message after reading the review with an apology, and assurance that he addressed the staff and management and that it would not happen again. I am impressed that he reached out. If I had not already found a great swim school, I would give them another chance.** My 4 year old daughter had 1 private lesson here and the experience left a bad taste in my mouth. As a mother, sometimes, you just get these gut feelings and for me, it would not go away. I signed up over the phone, and that was an easy enough process, but when we finally came for our appointment, they had double booked the lesson, so we had to wait an additional half hour. No worries, I wasn't in any hurry anyway. Plus it gave my daughter a chance to watch the other children and get a bit comfortable since this was her first lesson ever. But after a half hour passed, there was no one at the front desk so that I can inquire on where to go, what to do. So we stood there waiting for about 10 minutes until someone finally helped us. When we finally did go inside to the pool area, there were about 5 different group lessons going on at the same time and boy, was it loud in there. Because of the acoustics in there, it seemed even louder...instructors yelling out instructions, children laughing, yelling, squealing. Parents can watch the kids though a window instead, but since this was her first lesson, I wanted to watch her front and center. Well, the entire 30 minutes of her lesson, the instructor barely gave her any eye contact. In fact, she just seemed so distracted. The front desk workers were constantly in and out asking her questions, fellow instructors were talking to her...it just seemed so chaotic for my daughter's first experience. Perhaps the instructor and the front desk workers were having a bad day...but I must trust my gut, and my gut said that if this was a taste of what was to come, then "no, thank you".

A:
I was starving and between errands so stopped in for a quick chicken fried rice. Disgusting. There was zero flavor... I added three packs of soy sauce to make it taste like something. The chicken had a grayish color and no carrots, peas or egg. Only bean sprouts and onion, I ate about a quarter of it and pitched it. Never again. How hard is fried rice?
