I canât understand the heat rating . Out of our 2 dishes neither was even âgoodâI had chicken salad pita with cheddar. It must have been microwaved... the cheese slices were semi melted and all else cold. The other dish was an omelette which was mediocre as well. The asparagus added didnât serve to be drained so it was watery. The only thing we liked were the zucchini sticks which came with the pita . It was busy .. so it took a while for the waitress to get back over to us so I could get sone lettuce do I could peel the half lard cheese off and make a sandwich. But the chicken salad lacked flavor with nothing added for taste. Worst meal Iâve had In a while .
9. Luca Tratt
Reviewed By arubaphil
Our friends and my wife and I dined at Luca this past Saturday and had a delicious dinner. At Luca you can order a pizza or have a full Italian meal in a casual, cozy and relaxed atmosphere with white tablecloths and linen napkins. Luca should not be categorized as a pizzeria, but rather a nice Italian trattoria. Luca is a byob restaurant. We began with appetizers of stuffed mushrooms and calamari in a lemon and white wine sauce. Both were very good. The calamari was tender and the sauce perfectly complimented the dish. Entrees were veal parmigiana, veal francese, veal with sundried tomatoes in a cognac sauce and a rolled veal stuffed with prosciutto and cheese in a sherry sauce. All were accompanied with a salad and a side of pasta. Portions were very generous. Everyone thought their meal was delicious. We will all definitely return.

We celebrated our dear friendâs Birthday. The food was good. The service was sub par. Our waiter when asked what came with the Veal chop special responded â assorted vegetables and other itemsâ whatever that means. The service was non-existent, we had to wait to get someone to meet our eyes to get pepper. For an established restaurant with a reputation for great food, to have such poor standards for service is very disappointing. It doesnât encourage a return visit.

Old barn dating back over a century. Was a speakeasy. Been going there for 50 years+. Rustic interior. Food is really good, both price and portions. Owner is always there to make sure you enjoy your visit. Place with a long history, the grandkids of original customers now go there. Definitely worth it.

Was recommended to grab lunch here and it was a solid choice. Not terribly busy on a summer Friday, but the service was great and so was the food. We both had the jicama salad special with grilled salmon; it was very fresh and the fish was cooked perfectly. Nicer atmosphere, folks seemed to be enjoying their food and conversation, would be appropriate for a business lunch as well. Lunch was on the pricey end of the scale but worth it.

We've been eating at this Irish themed diner for the six years it's been under this ownership, and it is always a pleasure. Last Friday was no exception. The waitresses were filled with funny comments making my usually dour son smile despite himself. It's great fun to sit at the bar and gab with the help, but we were doing business, so sat in a corner table. There are two lines of tables, close together, but doable.The fish and chips appealed to us both, and the fish was perfectly prepared -- crunchy on the outside, warm and comforting on the inside. Neither of us care for their large cut potato fries -- they need to be a bit smaller and cooked longer -- a modest negative.Oakland is really lucky to have two excellent diners, one at the north end of 202 -- this one -- and one at the south end -- the Oakland Diner. Both great.

My friend and I tried to come here twice on a Thursday night. Luckily the second time we tried we got in here. I had the chicken milanese cutlet with mozzarella in a sandwich and it was a delight. It was big enough that I had the leftover for lunch the next day.
