We had a lunch reservation for Friday, January 2nd at 1:30 pm, and weren't seated until 2:20! It was a disaster. When we checked in, the hostess at the counter wasn't especially helpful and mentioned that they were running 20 - 25 minutes behind schedule. In their defense, they did bring out complimentary drinks to those waiting, but there wasn't enough seating, and as someone who is 9 months pregnant, it took a LONG time for them to eventually bring out some water. Which was fine (I didn't ask for it, after all), but I thought it a little odd that they weren't more aware of the crowd that was standing around waiting.\n\nWhen we were finally seated, I wasn't overly impressed with the food. The waitress informed us that the kitchen was extremely backed up, but we told her we had a flight to catch and the food came out in a fairly timely manner. The peppers to start were a little too sweet for my taste (it tasted very citrus-y to me), and my dining companion and I did NOT like the sweet ricotta pizza (with pink peppercorns...it tasted like a spicy dessert). That being said, we both really liked the Venetian panino and would order it again.\n\nThe cookies to finish off the meal were delicious. \n\nOverall, I'm disappointed that a manager never made the rounds apologizing for the delay (like most 50-minute delays would warrant) , and that the food wasn't really worth waiting for. Hoping they get these kinks worked out, because the space is really, REALLY beautiful.
