A diner from Long Valley
Feb 2, 2009
Out to dinner w/friends on 01-30-09.
Price: $65 per couple, 2 drinks each, no appetizers for the 2 guys, 1 appetizer split between the wives, no soup or salad included with the price of dinner (only bread that came straight from the fridge ice cold), no desserts, 2 expressos, oh yeah and we had a $25 off coupon
Food:
1)sea scallops over rissoto cabonaro
the sea scallops were the smallest I have ever seen, I would have been embarrassed to serve them The rice should have had flavors of pancetta and onion, it was completely devoid of any flavor at all. I was shaking the salt shaker and pepper till it had some flavor. It was .25 cents of rice and $2.00 worth of scallops. A JOKE
2) papardelli topped with shrimp
devoid of any flavor. This was my wives dish & she asked me to try it because she thought maybe it was just her, NOT
3) broccolli rabe
very disappointing, way over cooked!! That was extra $ too
4) lobster
served fancy, the problem was they forgot the lobster
I do NOT recommend this place. Don't waste your time/$$! If you do though, stay away from the above dishes!
