The worst meal we've had out at a restaurant in a long, long time. My wife had the shrimp dish which was cold and the shrimp was tasteless and rubbery as if it had sat in a cold water pot after cooking earlier that day then grilled. Couldn't even pop the shrimp tails off the meat. Not to mention that the dish looked more like an appetizer than entree. I had spaghetti and meat balls and ordered a sausage on the side to sample. What a disappointment with the portion (approx 1-1/2 cups of spaghetti, which was cooked properly), however, the meat balls had the texture of meat loaf without the breading, more like 90/10 hamburger meat and a little larger than the frozen meatballs you get at Sams club in a big bag. The sauce tasted undercooked and had the consistency and color of a light salsa chip dip and could have pasted for such. the sausage was not link as requested but in 1/4" crumbles that were brought out in a bowl sliding around in a yellow/oily grease. The sausage was cold and hard.

Even though there were four of us the bread was only half eatten as a of being cold and hard. The olive oil herbs consisted of only table pepper. When we requested fresh bread, the waiter admitted that the bread was old and they had received other complaints. Another (hot / fresh) loaf was brought to the table just prior to us finishing our meal. My daughters Fettuccine Alfredo looked good and she said it tasted good but quickly finished it, not much of a portion, about a cup full. No salads were served as they are no longer included with your entree. - budget cuts I guess.

My daughters friend had wanted to order her favorite salad, called "insalada blue" a great tasting salad and a favorite of mine as well. Unfortunalty, management saw fit to discontinued this particular salad and nothing similar was added.

The cost of this disappointment, 84 bucks with the tip. included no alcohol, no appetizers and only one person ordered a house salad prior to the meal, my wife.

Overall, the visit to this restaurant turned an overall great family outing into one that would have been better if we had eaten at McDonalds.

No doubt dollars are had to compete for in this economic environment but cutting portions in half and making the always expected pre entree dinner salad an option not smart business. With bad tasting food, its a death sentence.
