The parking and people racing from their cars up the walkway was a turnoff, and the wine at the bar was an insult to Italian reds, though my guess is that the wines are not being stored properly.
One client in the restroom remarked that it took at least thirty minutes before anyone served them. The common theme seemed to be waiting around for service and food.

Well, at least we got served, right away, with our calamari appetizer, which was clearly forgotten but intended for some other clients (we saw theirs arrive half-an-hour later, though they were seated prior to us). I have pretty good “bread” control, but when the timing of the whole meal is so wretched, I end up eating a little more bread then I want to…you would, too, if you waited over an hour between the appetizer and the main course. During the wait, I noticed that there was one waitress who was wearing a nylon shirt, short flared skirt, white bobby socks and black loafers, something like you might see in a retro diner. I realized that the lack of homogeneity in the manner of dress amongst the servers was just a reflection of the lack of central ambience in the restaurant.

I am afraid that the experience as a whole was so devoid of anything artful that the food, unfortunately, was unable to sway my assessment of this restaurant. If you are the type of person who enjoys smoking while ingesting food and drink, and don’t mind so much about the timing of your food, then go to this patio; just make sure that you have a designated driver because you are likely to ingest more booze than you would, normally, as a means of entertaining yourself until your meal arrives around midnight.
