We visited Local Union 271 for a late dinner on a Saturday evening and had a mixed experience with the food but an overall enjoyable time thanks to the excellent service and ambiance. **Food** - Truffle Cavatappi Mac & Cheese: The cheese flavor was great, but the truffle was barely noticeable. I'd rate it 6/10. -Burrata: Absolutely fantastic! The pesto, flavorful tomatoes, and fresh basil made it a perfect starter. Definitely a 10/10. - American Wagyu Steak: The steak itself was good, but the chimichurri sauce overpowered its flavor. I’d recommend having it without the sauce or sauce on the side. The mashed potatoes served with it were very bland; I had to ask for salt, pepper, and butter. They were made with red potatoes, which could be improved by using a better-tasting variety and adding some garlic. Tried it with brown rice which was also bland. The steak gets an 8/10, but the mashed potatoes and rice are 0/10. - California Albarino Rice-Spring Risotto: This was a standout dish with a perfect blend of brown butter, fresh parmesan, and truffle oil. The asparagus, snap peas, and mushrooms balanced it nicely. It was a delightful 10/10. **Service** - Manager Victor: Provided excellent customer service. He ensured everything was perfect and even helped fix the bland mashed potatoes and rice. - Jeff: Curated an excellent playlist that enhanced the dining experience. He was kind enough to share it with me, making my trip home just as enjoyable. Every song was a hit from the moment we entered the restaurant.

We came because they have high reviews with more than 1000+. Ha, the only thing that is good is the atmosphere. We were excited to try out this place on their outdoor patio with fiery heaters. The food was… not that good. The staff lacked some common sense. When she asked what we wanted for drinks when I scanned the menu, I said “just water is fine”. Then, she came back with only one glass of HOT water. Excuse me, did I speak too lowly that made you think just water = hot water? It’s burning hot, and only ONE cup. We were a 3-people group. I had to ask her again for cool water, and this time she came back with A cup of cool water :) I gave up as I also ordered one Latte for my husband (I’d just steal some sips then) and gave the water for my baby. Other than that, food was served quick. We ordered iced Latte, one Avocado Poached Egg Benedicts and one Bacon & Deviled Eggs Platter. For $22, we expected more from the Egg Platter, but the food disappointed us. No comment on the presentation, but it looked ridiculous. The bacon was overcooked, too dry. The eggs were very bad. The only good thing was the grilled bread, because only the bread tasted okay. For the egg benedicts, I would ask how could you screw up egg benedicts? It was so bad that we couldn’t finish the plate. The eggs were okay, tomatoes were not fresh, the avocado was… edible at least, but the bread was soggy and not warm. And the side potatoes were over grilled to the point many pieces were pitch black. We ordered iced Latte to go because we were slow drinkers and we wanted to enjoy every bit of the coffee. After having these two dishes, we had to gulp down all the coffee to wash away the after taste.
