4.5 Below Average

Food  3      Ambience  7      Service  5      Value  3     

If only I read the reviews prior to dining here! It was way over-priced, the quality of the food was poor ie. carbonara, marinara and veal dish were overly salty, the fettuccine was undercooked, the lamb shanks hadn't been stewed sufficiently so the meat was too firm, the accompanying vegies had a bizarre taste, the costly salad used coarse rocket leaves and a bland vinaigrette.

To top it off, I realised after paying that they had ripped me off an additional $12 by overcharging when I later checked their menu! The only saving grace was the calamari, our friendly waiter (although the service was a bit lacking) and the family-friendly ambience.
