"Arrived to hostess on the 800° side to seat party of 5 at circular dining table.  Was given a list of specials. Ordered 3 of the Jameson “mule” cocktails with no price listed.  The drinks were extremely watery, bland, and in a small glass.  Our server offered us splashes of pineapple, juice, lemon juice, and cranberry juice, which did not help the flavor. It wasn’t until later, after asking a question about the bill the server told us the Jameson-which was supposed to be in the cocktail was out of stock and the bartender substituted Chivas regal, which is not something I would have wanted mixed with experimental syrups and not given the option to switch or cancel the order. Considering the 3 cocktails were $72, I felt the staff was inconsiderate and most bartenders will let you know if spirits are unavailable before they sold you something else.  The food and quality was good although the portions were small on many of the dishes. The burger was good, truffle fries, well cooked and tasty. The crabcakes seem to be made with fresh ingredients, but very tiny portion of accompaniments for the nearly $60 price tag for just the cakes. The filet mignon came well done when we asked for medium rare, so we insisted that it be remade, considering the price and the occasion. The meatballs were excellent, the steak Frites were good, and probably the best value. The carpaccio was weak due to the tiny amount of fish that was used and the pickled and umami flavors of the veggies and topping overpowered it to hide lack of fish. Good idea and concept but poor execution and not good quality.  We had to ask several times to get water refills for the children since cocktail glasses were used they would finish quickly and only got refills 90 minutes into our visit.  "

"Very disappointed and just terrible!! Tried this place on a whim and it ruined our Friday Pizza Night! Pizza was small for a large and the price. Pizza was horribly burnt on the bottom and the unpleasant burnt taste was noticable throughout it. Since the owner likes to accuse others with similar experience as not getting the coal fire concept, I will specify, this is not my first experience with coal fire pizza. I get it just fine but did not get a good one here. I got half soppressata and it tasted horrible! So bad I couldn 't actually even eat it and picking it off did not help, the nasty taste permeated throughout, thoroughly. Not to mention simply asking if it was hot or mild got me an inaccurate lecture on what it was. I have been eating it since before the clerk was born! Sauce did not have a good flavor and there was absolutely nothing authentically Italian about this place despite what they try to portray, including but not limited to NOT one actual Italian cook or worker in sight! This was my first and last time ever eating here. I will brace myself for the owner response somehow justifying this mess of a restaurant, as I see that is a pattern with reviews here. Idk how they think that gives a good look. I run from places where owners do that. If only I had read reviews first! Update: I knew I would get one of these responses! And it literally came through minutes after posting my review! Wow! If it 's not the owner responding to these reviews though, then why does it say owner in parentheses? ?"
