I took 2 out of town friends to Chiarella Ristorante for a nice Italian dinner. Non of us were satisfied with the service or the food served to us.
I had the Veal Chop Dinaee' which was very over cooked and taste like I was eating raw garlic. The mash potatoes were very dry as if they were from a box of potato flakes.
My one friend had the Jules of the Sea Aglia....most of the mussels on her plate were closed, meaning they were dead before they were cooked, she was very unhappy with the service when she pointed this out to the server, who seem to have a attitude and refused to get her fresh mussels.
My other friend had the Steak Micheal Anthony, requested it cooked medium rare and it came out black, he was unable to cut the meat let alone chew it. He also was surprised about the attitude the server took with him when he complained about the way his meat was cooked, and he also noticed that his mushrooms were not fresh they were like canned mushrooms.
After all that and the bill came we were overwhelmed at the expensive total and then they expected a tip to the server who seemed to carry the attitude all night long.
They did not meet my expectations!
I would never recommend this place to my worse enemy let alone any of my close friends.
