I must correct you. They do not simply "claim" to be a Romanian "joint." The proprietor I had creepy
feelings about the Iron Guard through the whole meal.is Romanian and as such has intimate knowledge of Eastern European cuisine. Had you spoken to him you would have realized this. Your name appears to be perhaps Indian. Do you, Salil,"claim" to be Indian (or appropriate  ethinic background, forgive my guess) or are you Indian?

Perhaps you tried the Vagabond on an off evening. We all have them, chefs included. A new menu was recently implemented with many Romanian and Hungarian specialties. 

How do I know all this about Vagabond? It is owned by my fiancee's parents, Mike and Norma Mayo. They are incredibly friendly people who care about their business. Knowing them as I do, I guarantee you that had you addressed them directly with your complaints, they would have made an effort to correct the situation. 

Excuse me if this sounds like a plug for the family business. I simply had to add my opinion. I have lived in many cities and eaten in many resaurants and I can tell you that Vagabond on a good night is not as you describe it to be.
