I really didn’t care for this place. I wouldn’t recommend it. Family style menu or catering for large groups dine in. Main dish was cheated on. All you can eat means all you can eat. It was a bother to them when we asked for more. Beware of that when choosing this place. Staff was friendly. Chairs had wheels on them which I thought was dangerous. Place is outdated and it was stuffy in the restaurant. I will not be returning too many other good restaurants for the price. Choose wisely .

The food is always outstanding. The staff was very attentive and friendly. Mary was our waitress tonight and I couldn't have asked for better service.

Parking: Generally there is more than enough parking at this restaurant.

So buyer beware when trying to use their newest val pac coupon that clearly states ANY pasta … it is not ANY pasta .. it is a limited selection and does not include any pasta with Alfredo or Vodka sauce… so basically the coupon is FALSE advertising to get you in the door then tell you the coupon doesn’t apply to ANY pasta. Really bad business. I heard other customers complaining and confused when told NO it is not ANY pasta… and numerous sauces are not included either..who ever does the ads should really select their words more carefully.. the ad should say SELECT pastas.. again its a tricky and sneaky way to get people in the door. Not to mention they clearly list the broccoli pasta as $9.99 but charged us $12.99?? Very confusing and annoying experience. The only reason I even gave 3 stars is because the food we did get was yummy. The $3 off was an online coupon available to anyone and she offered that as if it makes up for the false advertising. Makes me wonder what other stipulations the other coupons have.. like the FREE DELIVERY coupon probably only applies if you meet them half way ?????‍♀️or the BOGO sandwich deal probably only includes any sandwich not made with bread ???‍♀️ F minus Papa JoesEdited… May 2024 …so looks like they added a stipulation to their newest valpak coupon MAX $10 value… helpful but still need to fix your wording… its not ANY pasta… its still select pastas with select sauces.. still more false advertising and ultimately lost many local customers from large business in the area by not honoring your coupon!
