Hut's Hamburgers

First thing to be noted is this restaurant is incredibly loud and cramped. This used to be a hamburger spot and it’s set up exactly the same, they should add some kind of insulation or something to help soften the noise. I could hardly hear the wait staff or even my girlfriend who was sitting right next to me. We started with espresso martinis, which their house one comes with Sambuca and that’s basically the only taste you get—not a fan. For food we started with the meatballs, these were excellent with a rich sauce, 3 to an order. Also got the warm burrata because burrata is my gfs favorite lol. She was not a fan of the warm burrata and felt like it would’ve been much better just served the normal way of cold lol, to me it was like Italian queso. We shared a Caesar salad, which was definitely a good idea-it was pretty large. The salad was also probably my favorite item and dinner 10/10. For entrees we ordered the lasagna and the chicken parmigiana. The lasagna was pretty good but the chicken parm was not. The bottom was soggy and had a weird taste, maybe oil from it being cooked? We told our waitress Mallory about our dissatisfaction with the chicken parmigiana and she was so great and helpful. We switched it with just spaghetti (what my gf wanted) and took it to go. Also they gave my gf a dessert with ice cream and a little donut for her birthday as well. I definitely appreciate Mallory for how she handled our situation. She was great, and had great service all night. Her taking care of us at the end was the icing on the cake. Tbh I would go back probably just for her service alone. Also got tiramisu to go, ate it the next day and it’s delicious!! Definitely one of the best I’ve ever had, perfectly made

First time coming here and we will be back. Make sure to make reservations; you can come without reservations but expect a wait. The interior is something has the "old school" feel to it; old photos cover the walls. Nice music playing (a bit loud). They brought out fresh bread and bread sticks. We had to repeatedly request olive oil and balsamic vinegar but honestly, you don't need them. The bread has a really nice hint of rosemary and they taste freshly baked. We had the Caesar salad and these are quite good. Oddly no croutons or parmesan cheese. It's a delicious salad but just missing the typical accoutrements. We also shared an order of Calamari and it's quite good. For our main entrees, we had Cacio e Pepe, Rigatoni Bolognese and Lasagna. I tried the Cacio e Pepe and I know that is what I'm having the next time we visit here. It's an amazing pasta dish. The Rigatoni was also quite good. For the lasagna, it is good, but honestly, a bit heavy. They do not scrimp on the cheese or meat, but it was heavier on the mozzarella cheese and too little of ricotta (if there was any). The lasagna portion they serve is easily enough for four people, so if you are with a group and want to share a meal, just order one lasagna. We had a variety of drinks and they were mostly disappointing. I do realize it's an Italian restaurant but I would still think they could serve just about any drink. I ordered a cocktail and when it was brought out, I was told "this is our version" and it was bad enough I had to send it back. The server was nice and told me that wasn't a problem. Ended up having a dirty martini with olives. To start off... the olives! I never thought I would complain about olives in a drink but these were not cocktail olives. And the martini was pretty bad and ended up not finishing. One in our party wanted wine and the server was not at all knowledgeable about the wine list. In fact, neither were the bartenders. Their cocktail/wine list is 26 pages and we just didn't have time to review it all. The glass of wine brought out was red and our friend specifically said she wanted something white. I went to the bar and the bartender couldn't give a recommendation. What's the point of this extensive wine list if your employees don't know much about it. I've worked as a server and had to memorize the entire bar menu. We ordered desert and we were going to take it home; My friends had Tiramisu and they said it was the best they have ever had. I had the NY Cheesecake and it was quite good but I don't believe they make it. The downside of our experience was the hostess. Some hostesses seem to feel they wield control and abuse that... as did this person. We did not have reservations and simply just wanted to put our name on a list for anything whether it was outside or at the bar if we couldn't get a table. It was 8pm and were being told 9:30 - 10pm. Although there were three empty tables outside and there were spaces available at the bar, the hostess was being quite obstinate. After awhile, it seemed as if she wouldn't even take our names but ultimately she did take our name and number. After an hour of waiting, we went back inside to see where we were on the list. It was now 9pm and there were plenty of open tables and she sat us right away. The bigger question is how long had those tables been open? I'm 100% sure if we never came back... they never would have actually called us. Extremely poor service by the hostess. I've been to small diners and they will text you updates on your spot on the list. So, if you put your name down on the waitlist, check back frequently because it's likely they will never contact you. Hostesses seem to have a power trip here.

fresh ingredients and delish food, entrees are good portions for your coins. Appetizers on the other hand not so much. For date night def go heavy on entree selections and put the $ towards drinks and dessert

Excellent authentic Italian food in a wonderfully retro setting. The service was exquisite (thank you Elle). The Cesar salad was amazing as was the pasta with mushroom sauce. Everything we tried we enjoyed!

Amazing experience tonight with Dustin and Gia! Both had such great recommendations and Dustin had such great menu knowledge from wines to entrees and even dessert…!! This is my new favorite place 10/10
