We got seated within 3 minutes. Server was quick and very nice. The food was great. We had the calamari and it was delicious and a very generous portion. Loved the batter and the lemon butter sauce (idk what kind of sauce it was but it was everything!). I ordered the chicken piccata and also really enjoyed that. I would definitely order it again. Even my side house salad was the perfect size and tasty. My husband ordered the Toscana filet & shrimp. It was good. He liked it but said he'd try something else next time. Not sure but to me, his noodles taste home made. I thought his was good. The strawberry cheesecake was a large piece and I was surprised. Somehow we devoured that too even though we were already so full. The ambiance is perfect. It's nicely decorated, quiet, clean (big thing for me. You can tell they dust) and a really great layout with the open kitchen. We'll definitely go back and we're glad we have added them to our list of approved restaurants.

That was the best calamari! I really enjoyed it ???I liked the chicken with goat cheese but it was a little rich for me. The pasta was good but it wasn't the best. The calamari deserves five stars and for that will be back!

Restaurant was half empty when we arrived. Held at the hostess desk for 15 minutes while staff meandered around at half speed and no particular urgency. This is a terribly managed restaurant. Go to old Chicago instead

Great place for Italian food. Pollo Rosa Maria is my go to. Has been for 16 years. The portion sizes have been cut to a 3rd of what they used to be over the years but the price overall isn't bad.

Always, great food. Service is exceptional. Restaurant is always clean, including the restrooms ?
The online system is horrible. They want a lot of information just to order pasta. They want your email so they can spam you , which I find offensive. Additionally the system didn’t work. It took several attempts and using different links before I could complete they the order. Then on arrival you supposed to stay in car. No one comes to the car and the take out door won’t open from the outside . Very rude.I went inside to get my order after waiting awhile then waited several minutes at an empty restaurant for someone to show up at the hostess stand.However once someone showed up they were very polite and friendly. Maybe dine in is the way to go. Take out is terrible.The food. I ordered spaghetti and meatballs. Maybe the worst spaghetti I ever had. It was like ground beef floating in water. Eatable but tasteless. The low quality bread was stale. No butter no garlic. They provide an oil dip but it also had zero flavor, no garlic. So the bread is like stale cheap bread dipped in oil. Probably a blended olive oil because it didn’t taste like olive oil.The salad was good.Overall I would not back to try something else. I mean if you can’t make spaghetti…

The 2nd time coming here. The 1st was years ago and it was great. Not the case this last time. Food was mid at best. Our server was a delight. The restaurant as a whole was definitely meh....

Way too long to get meal out. Had to remind waiter to get more bread. Had to ask for more water. Took too long to even okay the bill.
