I have never understood the hype. We have gone a few times because of DH business associates. What a waste of money and time.

Fiola Mare is such a waste of money. OMG so overrated.


I agree with all of these.

I agree with these too. I would add Sfoglina to the list.

Totally agree with Le Diplomate and give it more than one shot.

I like Rasika, though.

Tail Up Goat was disappointing. I'd try again in case it was just an off night.

Tail up goat was amazing pre-pandemic. When they reopened, they had changed their menu and approach and it's much less good.

Tail Up Goat is so lackluster. Maydan too Imo.

I enjoyed tail up goat, but definitely didn’t think it lived up to the hype/price. Maydan was not enjoyable. I’m actually annoyed I spent an evening there.

I agree. The food is very good but not with the price or the drive. And the setting and service are so scripted and precious. I felt like I was in culinary Disneyland.

Rasika used to be great but went downhill hard.
La Bise is pretty poor for the prices they charge. It’s probably no better than La Madeleine.

Also agree with St. Anselm at the top of the list. Their wedge salad is downright gross.

That is disappointing because I loved maydan but went before the pandemic

Their cuts of meat are also disappointing. I can make a better steak from the grocery store. I do like their biscuits though.

I’m the PP. We went a couple months ago. They pressured us into the chefs choice menu or whatever it’s called where they bring you whatever they want. That may have been our mistake. But I found the food surprisingly bland. The toum had no flavor, for example, which actually seems hard to accomplish.

Northside Social is more of a bar that serves food. Like Clare n Dons. You don't go for the food.

I don't trust Tom Sietsema's food reviews anymore. He has given too many bad recommendations.

Why is this in Off Topic and not Food/Restaurant forum?
