    The service was not good. We had to ask for straws. There were 4 of us and the brought 2. We had to ask for bread and ask for Parmesan cheese. Two had pasta dishes- both were tasteless. Two had the veal special- those were good. When we asked for the bill we were not informed they charge and extra 3% surcharge to use a credit card.
