Awful
Are you kidding??
Ok, maybe I've been eating at some of the best restaurants for quite some time, but just the same on an absolute scale this place was horrible.
When I first sat down and saw the dirty menus and noticed the general uncleanliness I nearly walked out - and wished I had. I ordered French Onion Soup, some Scicillian Bread appetizer (bread with olives), and what was supposed to be the best and most popular chicken dish. I also ordered a small King Fisher beer after learning they didn't have any imported wine.
The soup was fair. Surprisingly there was no cheese for a dish that was supposed to be authentic. This was the best of what was to come.
The bread appetizer was terrible. After the first bite I forced myself to eat two of the five appetizer pieces of bread. I couldn't handle any more and waited for the main dish.
The chicken was essentially deep fried chicken served with a side of gravy and french fries. This wasn't exactly what I had in mind - but hey - I thought I'd give it a try. The chicken was very crunchy, which is good for fried chicken - but it had no taste! The gravy didn't taste good at all. The fries were fair but a bit on the soggy side (surprising giving how crunchy the chicken was). I ended up dousing the chicken with salt to add some flavor.
In the end I walked away still hungry and with a terrible taste in my mouth. I was very dissapointed by the earlier posts and although I have never provided reviews before I felt compelled to leave this to try to forewarn others who may feel compelled to try this restaurant.
Hope this helps.
