I got a to go order and it was ready on time. The steak was perfectly rare as ordered and the rest of the meal was delicious!

The salad bar isn’t an option (even though I didn’t want it); its price is included with all entrees (except burgers). I ordered baked penne with a red sauce. It was filled with onions & green peppers. Since I don’t like either, I returned it & the waiter said I had to pay for it because it was “listed” on the menu (under “marina” sauce). To cap the evening, the waiter spilled a glass of ice water onto my lap & purse. Fries were tasty; cocktails were delicious!

Went with a group for a holiday dinner. Prime rib, Cod, fried pork chops, fillet tips w/ pasta, and salad bar was all good. A bit pricey, but close in price to most otherupscale restaurants. Nice and helpful staff.👍 I would go again if in that area again.

Service was fantastic, food (fried chix) was a tad dry, dining area was loud only because there was a wedding upstairs - sounded like Riverdance was performing 😂. Will definitely try again on a future visit to the area.

Service was very attentive and polite. The atmosphere is very welcoming and relaxed. The food alone is far past the casual dining standard. I make my own marinara sauce from scratch, and I can tell you just by flavor alone this restaurant does too, the best pasta sauce I’ve over had in a restaurant! The salad bar is excellently decorated and diverse in choices. Side note, Do yourself a favor and save room for dessert, because the selection is perfectly sweet and satisfying without being too rich.

(Picture included is sausage and peppers after I mixed it up, it was much prettier before I dug into it)
