Our first time. We were placed in a booth in the corner. Which would be okay, but it was really dusty and warm. Our waiter Angel was terrific. Everything good, but the tiramisu lady fingers were stale. All and all we will try again., I went at an off time (2 pm) so it was very empty and I was the only one eating at the bar. The bartender was great (really attentive, pleasant, made a good drink). I got the Chicken Franchise with a side of pasta and marinara and asparagus. This was enough to feed 3 people and the leftovers kept me happy for days. All the food was really good and the asparagus was awesome. The sauce was nice but not as flavorful as I'd like but I'm a real snob when it comes to Italian and no chain restaurant will ever impress me too much. I did ask for extra sauce once I got my meal and they quickly brought me plenty. I also got the $6 to-go lasagna that you can get when you order an entree. I thought it was quite good and fantastic for the price. HOWEVER.....if I had to sit and listen to that pseudo-italian music one more second I'd jump off a roof., Deon was AN EXCELLENT server!! He made my birthday feel so special!!! My family and I will definitely be back!! I had the 16 oz bone-in ribeye with the garlic mash potatoes and asparagus! The asparagus was a little over charred but nonetheless I enjoyed my meal! Also get the BUTTER CAKE!, Had the Taylor St. Baked Ziti and really enjoyed it and sampled my wives mushroom ravioli and it was delicious. They also have a 6 dollar take home option for their traditional pasta dish like Moms Lasagna which I had before and recommend, The food is consistently tasty! Lunch & Dinner selections are inexpensive and filling. The service, however, varies given the waiter/waitress; we noticed if seated at the bar vs a tabletop nearby, service is quicker🤔
On a couple of visits, the tablecloths weren't clean but they were happy to change or reseat us so it worked out. 👍🏼
