I think it's best to describe this place with a theory, called the Tipping Point Friend Theory described by my favourite sportswriter, Bill Simmons. Here it goes:
"Every group of female college friends goes between eight and twelve girls deeps. Within that group, there might be three or four little cliques and the backstabbing is through the roof, but the girls get along for the most part and make a big deal about hanging out, doing dinners, having special weekends and everything else. Maybe two of them get married early, then the other ones start dropping in their mid-20s until there's only five left - the cute blonde who can't get a boyfriend because she's either a drunk, an anorexic, or a drunkorexic; the cute brunette who only attracts assholes; the 185-pounder who'd be cute if she lost weight; the not-so-cute one with a great sense of humour; and the sarcastic chain-smoker with 36DDs who isn't quite cute enough to land anyone but hooks up a lot because of the 36DDs. In this scenario, the cute brunette is the Tipping Point Friend - as long as she's in the group, guys will approach them in bars, clubs or wherever. Once she settles down with a non-asshole, now all the pressure in on the drunkorexic and if she can't handle it, then the girl with 36DDs has to start wearing crazy shirts and blouses to show off her guns."
My point is this: Santini is like the sarcastic chain-smoker with 36DDs who hooked up often but never found a serious suitor. Simply because there's not much competition for 'upscale-type' restaurants in Tropicana Mall and they're suddenly the hottest friend in the group. Does this mean they're hot? Of course not.
Some average pizza.
Some average thingy.
Some average thing.
My average lasagna.
See, maybe I'm being overly harsh. But really, the portions are small, the food isn't great and it's overpriced. The reason I didn't elaborate on each dish (as you know I am wont to do) is simply that you'd be reading the same thing for each dish (which I probably have written before). So, yeah, in terms of pricing, it's at the Puerto Rican Specialty Factory level for rather disappointing food. Like the chain-smoker with the 36DDs, Santini hooks up often (gets a lot of one-time customers) but doesn't land anyone permanent. It gets a 4/10 on my ranking scale.
