I really must start reading through reviews before I order food online. I was feeling italian food. Not to brag or anything, but I make the best marinara sauce of anyone i've ever met. But I've become older. And I've become lazier. So even though I am home, I occasionally order food rather than cook. There is an italian restaurant not far from where I live, but they weren't showing up on Uber eats. (Pizzaria La Sorrentina) What did turn up on Uber Eats was a place called Sarina's Italian kitchen. Which, I did not realize, is just a part of McGrath's fish house. Bummer. I ordered my food through Uber Eats. I paid $2 for priority delivery, and I still had to wait for my driver to make one stop before she got to me. Once again, I made the mistake of ordering food while I was extremely hungry. And I ordered too much. I ordered sarina's combo, which is supposed to come with spaghetti lasagna and chicken parm. I also ordered a Caesar salad. But I somehow ended up with two Caesar salads. Sarinas chicken Marsala and Spinach dip completed my order The Caesar salad was good. Fresh crispy romaine lettuce. The spinach dip with what looked like garlic toast was pretty tasty. The chicken marsala was nothing special. I remember once many years ago I bought pre made chicken marsala sauce in a can. Just cook your own chicken and fettuccine. Then dump the sauce on, and serve. I guarantee you. This was the exact same thing. The Sarina combo comes with lasagna, chicken parmesan, and spaghetti in marinara sauce. I'm not Italian, but I'm pretty sure that my spaghetti was actually linguini. And the sauce was just prego canned spaghetti sauce. But at least it was warm. My lasagna was actually cold. I guess they didn't microwave it long enough. I could tell by the saltiness that this was frozen prepackaged lasagna. The best part of the Sarina's combo was the chicken parmesan. It was actually warm enough to eat and tasted pretty good. Admittedly, I was so hungry that I ate about 1/3rd of the combo before I remembered to take a picture. We all make mistakes. I made mine. Hopefully, you will read the reviews before...
Read moreGosh, I wish I’d read the reviews on this place. A good reminder that if something seems too good to be true, it probably is.
We were craving Italian food and were excited to see an Italian restaurant we’d never heard of on Uber Eats. The prices were good and free spinach dip with our order, yes please! We were starving and excited when the food showed up as the portions were huge and everything looked good. I had gotten the four cheese tortellini and took one bite and something tasted very off. I immediately became suspicious that the food was spoiled. I sniffed it and could smell a funny smell. I opened google to see what was in the dish again in case there was an unfamiliar ingredient causing this taste. Then I came to see all the reviews and found out this is not an Italian restaurant at all, but a ghost kitchen for McGrath’s Fish House. Everything clicked and I realized that funny taste I was tasting in my cheese pasta was FISH! Ew.
My husband’s seafood fettuccini was almost as bad. He said it tasted like nothing but butter.
I will say, the spinach dip was pretty good.
The rest of the food… all $60 worth… ended up in the trash. 2 stars for portion size and the dip but overall this was really disappointing. When you want a yummy Italian dinner it sucks to be bait and switched with fishy food. I’m going to try and get...
Read moreHoly cow, I wish I had read the reviews before ordering. I don’t normally review food but the quality was so abysmally appalling I had to leave a review. This was the single worst food I have had in over 5 years. Truly, no flavor, soupy, and just gross. I honestly believe a small child following any recipe could cook better food. I hadn’t eaten all day and literally could only eat two bites. We ended up throwing our whole dinner away. Who ever is in charge of this kitchen clearly doesn’t care about the quality of food that leaves the store and should be embarrassed. DO NOT GET...
