Food was excellent, but our waiter wasn't to friendly. We felt he was rushing did not present himself, didn't explain any dish & when he brought out the plates were put as rushing.

La nourriture était excellente. J'ai jamais mangé des pâtes aux champignons aussi bonnes & le tartare de saumon délicieux, mais j'avais fini mon verre d'eau & ca a pris un bout avant d'en ravoir. Seul point négatif.

Overall our direct interactions with the service was pleasant. The staff all seem to get along great but unfortunately their good time together greatly impeded ours. They had very loud boisterous conversation in the middle of the otherwise quiet restaurant. Their conversation was not overall what I would say to be appropriate either, with plenty of cursing & off hand remarks. The food took quite some time to get, & without many other customers it almost felt rude for them to all be out in the front of the house. When it came to the food, I found it be considerably lacking. We had the mushroom appetizer which was probably the best course of the diner. The margherita pizza was soggy, & while it did have fresh basil, it was mere slivers of it. I would say though it did taste like they at least use San Marzano's tomatoes throughout. Our lasagna was rather bland & disappointing, the sausage had no real bite to it & the sauce tasted of just tomato. It wasn't the worst Italian food I have had, but it certainly wasn't anything I would write home about.
