We went here for our anniversary thinking it would feel special. Wed heard it was exceptional. First thing you should know is that this is a cash only establishment. We werent aware of that until we arrived for our reservation and there was a sign on the door. So we had a moment of panic and scrambled to see if we had enough cash on us. It wouldve taken 20 minutes to go find a place to get cash if we hadnt pooled our purses and had a minimal amount. It wouldve been helpful if whoever called me to confirm our reservations couldve given a heads up. It couldve also be noted in the text I was sent to confirm. Because we didnt have enough cash we couldnt order any appetizers and the cost of bread or salad isnt included in the entree so we didnt have enough for a salad. So basically all we got was each a small bowl of pasta each ($18). We did get the bread ( $5 ) and there was a small bowl of olive oil and red wine vinegar with no herbs or garlic in it like other Italian places Ive been. I doctored it up with salt and pepper. We brought a bottle of red wine, something my husband had saved for a special occasion. The server asked if we wanted cups and we were confused, like , no were just going to swig it out of the bottle, yes, but wed like glasses. He brought us out two white coffee cups and before pouring his wine my husband blew out particles of dust or dirt from the cup. The server didnt uncork the wine. We were charged $5 each for a corking fee. I didnt drink any so we had enough cash left for a tip. The pasta was nothing special but it was okay. I couldnt tell if any herbs or garlic was used. My sauce was kind of like Chef Boyardee ravioli in the can. The meatballs were just these tough unseasoned things. Also, it wouldve been nice to have a spoon to wind the spaghetti with but none was offered and we couldnt catch the servers eye and just slurped it up. I hate to give a bad review as this is a local establishment but our dinner was so disappointing and it was our anniversary! Lots of folks say this is such a good place and just rave over it. I dont understand why.
