"I wanted to love this place. It’s mentioned in Rick Steve’s book but it just didn’t hit the mark. The food was ok. My husband and his friend had a pasta dish that looked so unappealing. I had naan and toppings and soup. It was good. My friend had a salad. She said it was good. What I found frustrating was that although we were 4 of maybe 10 people there for lunch it took over an hour to get our food. The service was so slow. Also, I had placed my water bottle on the table at some point and the gentleman serving us abruptly told me I can’t drink my own water!! I wasn’t -I just didn’t want my bottle on the ground. I wouldn’t recommend this place."
