Roseburg Restaurant Guide

We made reservations at Dinos expecting italian fare but the menu was not italian. We were informed after we were seated that it was a special menu for Valentines Day. The menu was a 4 course dinner at a price of 36$ per person-twice as much as the regular menu. The wine was poured-only half a glass because we were told Dino said the wine should be swirled before drinking-6$ a glass! The leek and potato soup was wonderful. Could have made a meal on that and bread alone. the salad was also good although it said 'blood orange salad' I didn't see any. My huisband ordered duck. The consistentsy was of boiled duck.Terrible! He sent it back and reorderd rack of lamb.Not much better. I had ordered salmon wellington-so dry I only ate half.We asked for coffee and it was almost cold. Sent it back to be reheated in the microwave. No spoons were brought to stir it with. Dessert was good-had to ask for forks. I must say our waitress was very nice and friendly although she was a bit harried. All in all we were turned off of this resturant. Its too bad because it could be a very nice place to have a nice italian dinner. I think the 'special' menu was way beyond the chefs capability.

Noisy, rude and poor service, limited quality yet pricey, weak wine list, wandering owner not of this world. Severe disappointment.
