Firstly let’s break down the appetizers. The Chicken Wings had a strong, distinct taste. Somewhere between a very nice tangy and the appropriate salty. The Cilantro Chili Prawns were beautifully fried and tasted amazing! The best of all however, was the Spicy Fried Calamari: absolutely delicious! decorated with coked tomatoes and peppers.
The Main courses were an hearty meal. The food portions were perfect leaving everyone satisfied albeit wanting more! The American Cheese Burger was claimed to be , and we verbatim quote “The best beef burger in town”. And it definitely ranks in our list of the top beef burgers in town! A juicy beef patty enclosed in crispy buns with a side of fries.
Margherita Pizza was delight! A soft thin crust topped with melting cheese, the right amount of spice and succulent, the pizza is a must try! The Tarragon Chicken is a Eataly specialty. Marvelously cooked by the chef with a side of vegetable rice and assorted vegetables. And the Chicken in Blanket is a dish we definitely recommend you should, strike that, you MUST have! Chicken cooked in gorgeous sauces, wrapped in turkey bacon! WOW!
