The amount of sauce on the pizzas is pitiful. Its really a shame and should be addressed.

Do not Recommend….. I’ve had great experiences in the Rockville location so thought I’d try this one out. First, I found hair in my food the moment they sat the plate down. absolutely disgusting. After I requested the bill, I noticed I was charged extra for a side I did not order. I eventually had to speak with the manager (who did not come over to apologize for hair and bill error). The server was nice. Just wished she advocated to her manager more about the issues rather than me requesting to discuss the bill. I will NEVER return nor recommend this restaurant to anyone!!!

Food is really good and service is great, but it is certainly not a value place to eat. Prices are definitely high and it makes it a rare occasion for us to eat there. We do buy the discounted cards at Costco but you can't use them during any of their special nights, like buy one pizza get second pizza for $8. Which really isn't much of a special for some; how about just reducing price of each pizza (or each pasta dish on another night) to actually make a deal for those who only need one pizza or pasta?

This place is newly renovated and brand new to look Italian style design from the olden days . This placehas two huge dining areas as you enter a natrow hallway through two doors. This place has one HGTV , a huge barista cashier and sell exotic drinks and behind it a somewhat concealed kitchen to make all the magic of your favorite foods of your choice of their fantastic Menus . They are famous for their Speghetti , Pizza s and seafood, And appetizers . They have even alcoholic and soda drinks even a great collections of wines i saw racked almost like a wine cellar . They have fantastic Hospitality staff and crew . They made my birthday there very special on 12 21 2025 . I hope to go back there again . I did sign up for varista cashier customer service, Host person I hope to get there to show them what I cando without Judgment or bad Politics blinding them . Wgat has happened during the pandemic to this dark age is inexcusable, Unlawful , Unprofessional, And disrespectful. We have to be sure what happened then never happens again to anyone . Thats why im willing to ve the change they need if given a chance .

Always a great experience, but this past weekend was amazing. We had a group of about 30 people and had reserved the back room. We added people last minute and they didn’t seem bothered at all. They then asked if we wanted one check or Separate checks… We asked for separate checks, and again they seemed unfazed. They had multiple servers throughout the entire dinner who took orders at multiple different times because our group had people trickling in late. The food came out quick and the service was excellent. They were so on top of their game! I really hope our group treated them and tipped them well because they really did such a great job and didn’t even add the gratuity to the checks. They were so organized with the payments too…I have no idea how they did that! 👏

Never eat at this place. The management and the service workers are the worst people I have ever had the displeasure of encountering. They made my mom cry and treated her like she was less than them just because she is picking up for doordash and uber rather than for herself. I myself have had such unpleasant encounters but this was the icing on the cake for me. The girl at the front counter has such a nasty attitude and is constantly whispering about the customers to other coworkers IN THEIR FACE. When we ask the people to check on the order because of the ABSURD wait times, this girl will straight up not check, tell you it’s not ready, and then proceed to give you the order that was sitting waiting the entire time after making you wait for the sake of waiting. seems to me like trying to abuse the only power she has over you. weird. today, my mother asked a seemingly new worker if the food was ready, without checking she said no, my mother asked her to check on the pizza's please and she started to go to the ovens to check. then the girl that we always have problems with then went up to the girl that was helping and whispered something in her ear, turned back to my mother and proceeded to ignore her. My mom told the girl she asked a question and was expecting an answer because that’s basic respect and the rude girl tries to chime in. When my mother who is already frustrated by her repeated behavior tells her that she was not talking to her and was asking the helpful girl she proceeded to run to the manager. The manager came out and called my mother rude, demanded my mother cancel the order and threatened to have her kicked out. At the end of the day my mother is working, and asking questions about wait times. This repeated response of the restaurant is appalling and wrong and it’s very clear they don’t treat their sit down customers this way. The manager ended up cancelling the order and having my mother leave because he has no right to demand for her to cancel the order. i’m sorry because i actually really like some of the workers there and have such pleasant conversations, but this girl has such an air of entitlement around her and is such a bad representation of your brand. Having her out there everyday with her nasty attitude is gonna cost you. She should learn some basic respect. If i could put zero stars i would.

I went in to get luncheon special. Was told that it had expired but that they would honor it as I explained I'd seen offer on line. I was questioned as to where I'd seen it on line. I told him I didn't recall the exact post. As I was leaving he hollered to the employee that it was not offered on line and that he didn't see it. I don't feel the need to exxergerate about a six dollar lunch at a restaurant that had the odor of an outhouse
service and atmosphere were great, the food was decent at best

Stopped in for some pasta with my pops. Everything was great. As soon as you walk in the door and you smell the air, you know you're in for a treat.
I got the shrimp Alfredo which was among the best I've ever had. I love the fettuccine noodles! My dad got salmon picata which he also rated very highly.
Talked football with the owners son for a while. (the Giants will be back on top soon) Overall experience 9.5 out of 10.

Big ML fan. I frequent a number of them across the DC area and usually offer rave reviews of food and service. That stops today as I’m just in disbelief of my order. Chicken Alfredo. Basic staple right? I’ve had it several times in my life and at ML. I have officially written off the Olney location. The last two times at the Olney location, the dish was meh. Not my typical experience with ML and I chalked it up to bad nights. Shame on me for ordering a third time. The chicken was unseasoned and as it if it was boiled in water, chopped, and served. Upon inspection, there was almost NO SAUCE on the meal. Pasta and chicken. I had to add parmesan to make it edible. And burned bread! 6 slices of it. Yay me. Never again will I waste my money or time there. A 27 minute wait for this.
