In a city with over one-hundred Red Sauce Italian Eateries the Italian American Club Restaurant receives a hefty amount of love for its vintage atmosphere and Rat Pack era vibes, but judged on the merits of Food and Beverage there are far better places to spend one’s time and money.
Attended for a birthday, the private dining area converted into a banquet hall complete with live music and dance, staff is professional and courteous while the layout sees a noteworthy bottleneck for those trying to get a drink.
Served Buffet-style, the antipasti station highlighted by marinated Artichoke Hearts and Mortadella but brought down by stale Bread, Penne and Rigatoni are clearly made with boxed Pasta while decent Meatballs outpace Steak was overcooked and flavorless.
Priced on par with places like Al Solito Posto, though lacking even a fraction of the craftsmanship or quality, consider this for a night when “scene” matters more than what is served, though in that case Ferraro’s or The Bootlegger are much better.
