   Tagliatelle Verdi was good. Shrimp scampi risotto was abysmal and very soupy - not a well executed risotto. Scallops appetizer was far too small a portion for the price. Only 2 for $26 dollars was a surprise. Should’ve sent the risotto back, but we were running to a show nearby after. Overall, would dine elsewhere next time.

   We were disappointed in our meal and service for lunch. We ordered three courses: drinks and baguette, a salad to share and a pizza. All were delivered simultaneously rather spread out. The pizza was cold by the time we nearly finished the salad. The server had an attitude of here it is! Food overall had its usual good quality but cold pizza for lunch is not acceptable. Did mention the situation to the manager. Did offer a refund(?) but as we were leaving a little late. Unfortunate as we enjoy their food and ambiance. Thanks for reading.

   Food was OK. Pizza unremarkable, not particularly good. Pasta OK. Chicken dish was fine. Olive oil served with the bread had a "best before" date of March 2023. (It's nearly 2025.) That kind of lack of detail concerns me. The restaurant was also empty at 8 pm on a Saturday night. Concerning?

   Waiter never filled up the water glsss and we kept having to find him. Service was fast and in general this is a reliable place before concert. But it’s not at all the standard for the price and location. I told the waiter it was a birthday and ordered and reminded him, and the desert came out without a candle, and we had to ask. Then it took forever to get the check and my son was thirsty because no water was refilled the whole night and we had to go out to the Disney hall to buy water. Very disappointing. I’ve been coming for years. It’s like they were discriminating us when I brought three teenagers of color and the vibe was just not the same.

   As a single person I was treated poorly. Not told of specials, Ltd desserts and given an edible one that was replaced. Waiter did replace my order with special when I asked. Food over priced with poor service.
