| Of my two favorite Italian
restaurants in Spokane, one was closed by
fire another by the owner retiring...so
when I happened upon Tomato Street, I was
hopeful. Alas, it was not to
be.
While the
food is OK, it's nothing special. A
simple pasta dish of penne, garlic, olive
oil and mushrooms had a VERY HEAVY taste
and texture. I don't know what it
was, but it was far too heavy...ditto the
garlic bread and "Caesar
salad", replete with the white
gloppy stuff which passes for Caesar
dressing...well, I guess this was more
correctly described as: "beige
gloppy stuff".
Tomato
Street seemed very popular with families,
as the place was packed and all the kids
seemed to be having fun...but I just
wanted a good Italian restaurant.
Food: C.
Attitude: A. Ambiance: A+ if you're a
kid;C- if you're an adult.
Parking: A, Service: A...all
the waitstaff seemed quited helpful and
cheerful. Value: A.
