POMPOUS AND OVERRATED 7/5/2008

Right off the bat, the air of pretentiousness left me gasping for breath. The menu read of ""lettuces"" and ""cannolo"" (the singular of cannoli) - not how people talk, just their way of showing self-importance. After being seated at one of the smallest tables-for-two in town, I pulled the empty table next to us closer for some elbow room. The hostess swooped in to pull it away from us about 3 inches. That was all the room left to us between the other ""table-for-two."" I wondered what people did when the place was packed and someone in the booth wanted to get out for a restroom visit. We ordered the anchovy pizza and SODA which she NEVER brought. The waitress explained to us that if the menu doesn't MENTION cheese, there's no chesse on the pizza. Lame. Not exactly what I call informative. The way this menu neglects to mention important things like CHEESE AT A PIZZA PLACE and overbears with its ""lettuces,"" you'd think it was written by Frasier Crane with A.D.D. When we asked the waitress about ingredients, she replied with something like ""Oh yes that would be a yellow ground leaf from the mountains of the Himylayas, imported exclusively to us on the backs of African geese at 14,000 feet above sea level"" or some like verbose answer. Just tell me what the pizza is seasoned with!!! Pros: Walking distance is a plus. Cons: When you get there, the food and service are BAD. more
