Really, that is how you treat your customers? Really?

The previous reviews are spot on, the place seems cool enough but the food is just OK. Not bad, but not great. Although I do have to give them props for the Alfredo, it was very good. What boggled my mind was the service. For most of the meal it was fine. In fact, I thought it was adequate even past the point of paying my bill. But as I was sitting at my table getting ready to leave I felt a very strange cold sensation on my leg. A server had spilled a vat of blue cheese dressing on me. Why this volume of dressing was being served to anyone is beyond me, but that isn't the point. My pant leg and both of my boots were covered. The volume was so great that it actually splashed up my pant leg and all over my shin, which of course ran down to the inside of my boot. I understand gravity happens so I wasn't really all that upset (yet). I just started to clean up a bit and told the server that these things happen. What got my goat was the inability of the server to put herself in my shoes. My letting her her know that I understood it was not intentional was not a dismissal of responsibility. If you douse someone in blue cheese dressing you should probably try to make up for it. Offer to pay for the cleaning at the very least. I spent the next day tracking down a laundry rather than enjoying my vacation. My boots, despite my best efforts, seem to have a new interest for my dog. That was the price I paid. What was the price they paid for their error? To be fair they did offer me a piece of cheesecake. Really? Cheesecake? Really? I declined. Needless to say I will not be going back. Ever! Utterly disappointing. Truly a zero when it comes to service.

Looks NY-cool, but food is sad

Funny that the last review was written in 2005, but the experience I had recently was the same! The place looks really cool w/tabletops out on the sidewalk & a chalkboard listing the specials of the day, and the inside is sort of reminiscent of an NY bistro w/leather banquettes & white tablecloths & red-hued lighting. However, the good impression pretty much stops there. We ordered the lasagna & chicken picatta and like the other reviewer said, the food tastes canned - very substandard! The salad was barely worth picking. Sadly, we had lots of leftovers but didn't want to take them back to our room (we were visiting from LA). Anyway, service was nice enough, if not slow, but we won't be coming back.

Looks great but tastes like canned tomato paste

From all appearences, the Chase looks great, its got a fun atmosphere, but the food.. thats another story! The red sauces tasted like concentrated tomato paste! it was so rich neither myself or my girlfriend could eat more than a few bites. i would never eat there again! there are lots of other italian resturaunts in the area, choose anything but the CHASE!!!!
