The lunch set is good value considering you get three courses plus coffee vs the price of their a la carte menu. But maybe the a la carte is made better.
My wife had the antipasti buffet - the usual mozzarella cheese with tomatoes, parma ham with melon, parmesan cheese, shrimp and potato salad. A lot but ordinary. She had the mushroom risotto for main course. A bit bland and the rice was undercooked.
I had the minestrone soup. The vegetables were cooked but the soup was bland. I then had the veal for the main course. Half of it was soft and tender while the rest was dry, so I left it. There was also a sliver of sauce, I'm guessing some kind of gravy, but it was too little for the amount of meat. The roasted pumpkin was soft and tasty.
The dessert was plentiful but either bland (brownie, cheesecake), tough (mini profiteroles) or too strong (tiramisu's alcohol).
Service was good and you know that they were trained and / or are experienced.
At $348 ++ each and with the diet coke costing $58 I didn't think this was worthwhile.
