I am so disappointed to write this, and I sincerely hope this was just a one off experience for me, but I had been looking forward to eating here for 2 years since they have truffle macaroni.
When we first got there, it was confusing where to go, so we went upstairs asking someone if this was the right spot. They shortly told us to go back downstairs because that is where you are suppose to be greeted. Since no one was helping us the first time we were a bit confused, so we went down the stairs again, only to be greeted and taken back upstairs to a table.
Once seated, it took awhile to be greeted, and we were never brought bread. The crostini is very delicious as was the salad, so that was a good start. However, once the main dish of meatballs came we had no silverware. So trying to be helpful we grabbed some from the cupboard, only to be scolded by the waitstaff and told it was not ok to help ourselves. Letting this go, we continued to enjoy our meal, but had still not received our side dish of truffle macaroni.
Once finished with the meatballs they went to clear our plates and ask for dessert, but I mentioned we never had the macaroni, and were specifically waiting for that, so they apologized and brought it afterwards....and unfortunately I have definitely had better.
As we sat drinking our wine, the waitress asked if we wanted our bill since we weren't eating dessert, and we said fine. Once it was brought over, she then asked how we wanted to pay which seemed really inappropriate since we still had wine left and we were sitting there enjoying it, so I asked if we could finish our wine first before pressured to leave.
I really like Madklubben Steak and their entire concept, but really, there are so many other great Italian places in the city to spend your money on. Don't waste your time and money on this place. read more
