I have no idea what the big hooha is about this place.\nIt's bland.. yes the portions are huge but what good does that do if it taste like...blah.?\n\nThe reason for the 2 stars.. the decor and service. Being in this restaurant reminds me of being in a hotel in Vegas. it was very grandeur and venetian like.  \n\nI was here on a business trip and managed to spend my per diem of $55 easily. I had 2 martinis which I think was the best part of my meal.\n\nI had ordered calamari to start and tuna tar tar. The calamari was soooo bland that my salt and pepper sprinkling did not help.. my co worker actually sent it back to the kitchen.. that's how bad it was. apparently it was old oil (as the manager came out and apologized as he then tasted our dish and agreed.. or so he says.)  \nThe braised ribs were delicious, tender and the meat completely fell apart in your mouth, unfortunately this is what my coworker had ordered. I, for some reason went with ....hmmm. it was that bad I don't even remember. I remember not finishing it. \ndessert was apple pie (idk what their fancy name for it was.. but all it is is baked apple pie) with a scoop of ice cream on it. big whoop\n\na disappointment for the price and what I thought I was getting
