The food was good. If you like Olive Garden, this is a step up from that, but that's about it. It's nothing special, but it isn't bad. The atmosphere is decent. Overall it feels like it's sitting on a fence between being nice and being like any other mediocre chain type restaurant. Our waitress was rude, condescending, and overall not pleasent. She turned what could have been an enjoyable (but overpriced) dinner into a bad experience for us.

Food did taste good. There was too much sauce on the spaghetti and meatballs, and the sausage dish was watery, as if the pasta was not drained.

Kid-friendliness: Kids seemed to enjoy the restaurant and there was kid friendly food, but no extra activities for the kids.

This place is not what it used to be. The quality of the food has significantly declined, the service is disappointing, and the prices no longer justify the overall experience.

Decided to try the take out lasagna for the family Christmas Eve dinner. 40 bucks. Very disappointed in the product they put out. Stringy tasteless Cheese, Could not identify the meat ricotta or spices. Stick with your spaghetti and meatballs to go. And next year I will go to Marie Callenders for my lasagna.

I've been here a few times now. Overall, I don't love it but I do like it and will keep occasionally going. Costs decent money, sometimes have to wait for no obvious reason, and I don't know what the system is but EVERY time I've been there the staff seemed confused. The 1st couple times no one knew whether we were being served or not, the last couple times it took fewer people to determine whether we were being served or not. But the food is good (I say as a non-Italian), and they've been nice. The last 2 times I remember going I got a calzone which was fairly big and good and had a decent amount of filling and was not doughy and an eggplant parmesan that I wish had a less minuscule piece of eggplant (or 2) but tasted really good. My friend got the Valducci (I think it was) twice and one of those times O M G it was a garlic farm, it overpowered the smell of my food from across the table. It was actually befitting of the stereotypes of French people. When Sharpe said to let them get close and hold your fire until you can smell the garlic (at distance on a battlefield over the burnt powder smoke in the air) he meant something like that dish. WOOOO!

First time and we will be back! Food was amazing from appetizers to the main courses. Staff was attentive and I never hit the bottom of any of my drinks without someone coming by asking if I'd like a refill. Great way to end the evening:)! 10/10

Kid-friendliness: Our son was happy and behaved the best here out of all the restaurants we've been too, but he was excited to have his own personal pizza.

This is my go to spot after a long week same for a business lunch. The best food, staff and lunch specials. Get the Valdicci with a spring mix salad. This combo is my favorite. Awesome outdoor patio too.
