The food was mediocre at best. The eggplant entree had more breadcrumbs than eggplant. The chicken marsala sauce was way too thick. The waiter asked if we wanted bread but did not mention that they charge for $6 for rather average bread. The manhattan was lacking in vermouth and had way too much bitters. The best part of the meal was the glass of Chianti. Our server was amiable and provided decent service but, that did not make up for the lackluster meal. Maybe it was an off night, but we left very disappointed.

                                                                            Is this helpful?

They charged $1 for splitting the Francesca salad which i thought cheap of them. They made Bloody Mary with tomato juice only and had neither Tabasco or horseradish. While they agreed to swap it and I declined, I thought they should have taken off the bill. Probably a finr Restaurant if you order the right meal.
