Introduced some friends to Alley & Vine last night. I’ve been with my wife several times. Usually, we leave the kids behind but last night we were 4 adults, 3 kids. Most of our food was spectacular. The calamari didn’t do it for me and the oysters were a big miss. My friend found a large piece of plastic in her mashed potatoes. But what really offended me was the prictag for the pasta we ordered for our children. $20 for butter pasta is outrageous. I work in cultural attractions as an executive chef and our prices are HIGH but $20 for pasta is gouging. Please develop a kids menu. Even if only very limited options.
