"This had been my favorite restaurant for so many years, it breaks my heart that I can never go back. We started with the stuffed dates which were very nice. The bread was kind of dry and tasted day old. I love mushrooms, especially porcini. I ordered Tagliatelle, Wild Boar Porcini Bolognese, Sheep's Milk Ricotta, Fennel Pollen Honey. I rarely eat meat, but made the exception for the porcini. The dish arrived and looked like a regular bolognese. The ricotta was there, but no trace of the mushrooms or the honey. I searched the whole dish and found neither. I took a few bites and there was not even a hint. The waitress checked in and I asked if perhaps I had misread the menu. She checked and it did say porcini. She then went to the manager who explained that porcini is too strong so they grind them up to hide them. Then walked away. I was not happy, there was no offer of another dish. That's when the service went downhill. Another server stopped by and asked if we wanted the leftovers boxed and we did. My husband loves bolognese, but hates mushrooms. He tasted and liked it. Just found it odd that someone saw that full plate and wasn't concerned. Felt like our waitress was avoiding us. After the table was cleared our waitress brought dessert menus which we dismissed. Got the check, paid and left. Not one I'm sorry, or can I get you something else. I didn't want anything for free.. I just wanted to enjoy a meal, I ended up hungry and broken hearted. It took all I had to not cry on the way home"
