Thumbs down to andolini's restaurant.

I've been over 10 times by now and the food is always great and I highly recommend both the sirloin and the tenderloin, which are made at a perfect medium rare (the tenderloin comes with a signature sauce that is so worth a try). The sirloin is pre-cut, served with fries while the tenderloin is served as a classic filet mignon on top of a scoop of mashed potatoes. I'd say the tenderloin tasted like a prime grade steak but no way to absolutely confirm that. It tends to be a little more pricey than other restaurants in the area but its worth it. The only thing that I would never recommend anybody is the Chicken Parm (forgot the official name). It's just a huge chunk of flavorless white meat with poor quality sauce and cheese (quite disappointing, of course, for an Italian restaurant). Otherwise, the service is consistently acceptable but nothing special.

Sent it back and got a similarly overcooked piece of breaded chicken jerky. At least it wasn 't burnt this time. (Maybe this is why they keep the lights so dim. Chicken parmigiana served with an acidic sauce. My Italian Nonna rolled over in her grave. Please, remove the vowel from the end of their name. They need to lose their Italian card. I hope they took the hint when I left the doggie bag on the table. Not even my doggy would eat it. Stars for decent cocktails and wine. Maybe the fact that the restaurant was fairly empty on a Friday night after months of people being locked in their homes was a clue that we were in for a less-than-stellar experience.

Secondly, cutting through it and around the bone was nearly as difficult as parting the Red Sea. I was sawing away with all my might using the provided steak knife, and it felt like I was shaking the entire restaurant with my efforts. Additionally, while the menu mentioned sausage, I didn't fully grasp what that implied. Who really wants pork chop and sausage together on the same plate? I probably should have asked beforehand, but overall, the experience was not enjoyable. 4. **Professionalism concern**: Though I'm not a hospitality expert, I think it’s unprofessional to conduct interviews or wine and dine potential hires in the main dining area where other guests are trying to enjoy their meals in peace. On a positive note, the bar next door seemed cozy and enjoyable!

I make it a point to go every Sunday for brunch. The food is absolutely delicious, and the Bloody Marys are fantastic! read more I make it a point to go every Sunday for brunch. The food is absolutely delicious, and the Bloody Marys are fantastic!
