The restaurant is beautiful. The hostess was friendly.  The food was ok & very small portions for the price & quality. I barely remember what I ordered... lasange.... & it was just ok not fabulous which it what I had expected. The service was disjointed and slow. One of our orders came 10\" after everyone else's and another had meat on it when supposed to be a vegan dish. The waiter barely took time to stop by our table to check on us and we had to flag him down to point out our missing food & the vegan issue. We ordered desserts but again had to get the waiter's attention.  The check came about 20\" AFTER having to get the waiter's attention and ask him for it. We wanted to do a lunch there, not spend the afternoon!  Perhaps it will get better with time but right now, it is over priced and under organized. I'm hoping it will as I love watching Giada  on the various TV shows and truly love her recipes. I plan to give it another try in a few months assuming reviews are positive.
