The WORST burger
by jodilp
The meat was a slimy pale grey tasteless mass. I've never in my life returned a burger before. The waitress said it was the finest very lean meat and was just juicy, then she said it was dry because they smoosh the grease out when cooking it, then said their meat comes in patties from a distributor so she didn't know what was in it.
Sorry, but I'm an American who has been eating and cooking burgers my whole life. If you can imagine bad slimy meatloaf with no seasonings, that's what this burger was like.
In addition, The Heinz ketchup bottle with the wrinkled and worn label, which still bears the Heinz pickle (telling me this bottle is at least months old because Heinz doesn't have a pickle on their label anymore) and the pale watery non-Heinz ketchup inside tells me this place is cheap and thinks it's customers are stupid.
"Mary Poppins" on the big screen added to the ambiance.
- Pros: quiet
- Cons: gross burger
Worst experience ever
by jtn123
Let me premise this by saying I eat out a lot and know what good service is and isn't. My server was awesome, he went above and beyond considering he was the only one working with 6 tables. What I was appalled by was the owner Demo and his rude comments to the employees. He commented that one of them looked like Mussolini after he was hung. That was a huge turnoff, if I were that employee I would have quit and possibly seeked legal counsil.
Up until that point everything was great; service and food were great!
- Pros: Food is good
- Cons: Owner ranting on the floor in front of guests
Outstanding food, diverse menu, very good service and very reasonable prices.

Exceptional is the one word that describes the experience we had last weekend. We shared both the Penne Mediterranean which was made with fresh basil, roasted garlic, pine nuts, sun dried tomatoes, artichoke hearts and portabella mushrooms sauteed with spinach and Feta cheese in a white wine and lemon sauce and then tossed with Penne pasta. The pasta was boiled to just the right al dente texture. We also had the Trout Amaretto. The Trout was tender and flavorful and was sauteed in brown butter, toasted almonds and white grapes and enhanced with Almond Amaretto liquor. Wow! The entire experience was a feast for our palates.
Our waitress was accurate, polite, attentive and had a good sense of timing for serving the appetizers, main courses, dessert and coffee.
The prices are very reasonable and are 20 to 30 percent lower than what we have paid in so-called ?up scale? restaurants Downtown or Mt. Washington.
Highly Recommended.
- Pros: Very good and well-prepared food, attentive service, very reasonable prices.
- Cons: Parking - it's tight but available - parking lots are within walking distance.
