Maybe a bad day
10 of us celebrated an afternoon birthday party here.
The decor is cookie cutter Italian, the food OK, and service not good.
For a starter we had several helpings of the Med Bread. It was OK, although the dripped on “gorgonzola” dressing was lacking in flavour.
For the main, I don’t know what I was thinking, but after reviewing the menu several times I ended up choosing the Thai Chicken Salad. I expected a slightly spicy noodle dish. I ended up with an oily tasteless bowl of mixed green with a few spaghetti noodles hidden underneath.
After sitting around for 20 mins our orders were taken. It took over an hour for our food to arrive.
A couple of other things bugged me about the service —one of the servers was walking around picking his nose and another was licking her fingers after serving up some dessert.
Dishes I tried:
Thai Chicken Salad

The accompanying foccaccia bread was stale
Med Bread
Tasty although the gorganzola sauce was overkill and tasteless.
