Express italian eatery genuinely makes some of the best pasta I've ever ordered. This unfortunately doesn't come close to offsetting their price gouging and atrocious inability to follow their listed hours.If you are looking to order from them, I have to recommend ordering through an app such as Skip the Dishes as they are the only company I've ever seen to increase their website pricing by upwards of 30% against the pricing on that app.
I had one large glass of wine, the Pinot Grigio was very good,one small glass of wine and the Chicken Marsala. The bill was $ 71, a bit steep but fine. The Chicken Marsala was one chicken breast covered in a nice tasting sauce, and a small accompaniment of veggies, the veggies were little more than a garnish. It was "okay" The fettuccine my friend had was way too thick, under cooked and inedible, that got sent back and was redone with spaghetti noodles. A customer that heard us discussing the fettuccine outside in the parking lot all of a sudden asked " Did you have the fettuccine?", when we said we had, she mentioned it has been made like that for some time, and it was not good, so it doesn't sound like we just got them on a bad day. The worst part for me is that one of our waiters had really bad BO, so bad it even lingered. The main server was very nice, but slow, took forever to clear the plates, didn't respond at all to our polite complaint.
I had an or from here after studying more then 15 minutes the told me we are closed and that’s not good for me at all also they have the worst delivery service

We checked reviews before coming. We were expecting poor service! As we walked in, an obviously upset person was storming out and warned us “don’t go in there, the service is terrible”. Undaunted, we carried on… We waited a bit to be seated but after that, service was great! Friendly, fast, attentive. We had salads and chicken parmigiana. Salad was minimal but with a tasty dressing. Entre was excellent. Served hot. Delicious sauce. Meat was a bit tough around the edges but otherwise great. Good ambiance in the dining room. Not too crowded. We’ll be back ??
If you want good authentic Italian dishes you have to order from here or dine here !! I’m obsessed with their pasta !! Whether you eat in or get take out you won’t be disappointed!! Every dish I’ve tried has been amazing !!!! Today I called to express my gratitude & tell them how amazing the food is !! I spoke with Sonny & he said getting a call to say how much I loved the order is a nice thing to hear !! As Customers we are more likely to complain with a phone call than a compliment !!! So if you have a great meal let them know ‘ you might just make someone’s day !! And when the food is this good you need to shout it from the roof tops !!

Great services and amazing food!
Called to make reservations for Saturday nite. Was told there were two parties that ought to be finished by 5:30 or a bit later. Not taking reservations; just walk in and you'll get a seat. Showed up at 6:30. Told that without reservations we'd not be seated. "We don't guarantee a seat when you don't make reservations. You agreed to try walking in; that's not on us." Liars.
I have been looking for a good Italian delivery for sometime. I had high hopes but unfortunately my order wasn't very good. I ordered fettuccine and it was so large/thick and under cooked, it wasn’t very nice to eat. It was to be cooked in olive oil but instead it was soaking in it. It was a very heavy and uncomfortable meal to eat. The bread that I was given was obviously old and stale. There was also no Parmesan sent with the order which is essential for a pasta.

We frequent this restaurant a lot in the past and in fact our last meal was excellent. However, we decided to order a takeout and we are so disappointed with our meal. We order 2 calzones and both were not what we ordered. We found the calzones were bland and tasteless. The sauce with the calzone barely covered them. The meals were ready when we arrived but it took 10 minutes to get anyone to get them for us. Our first calzone was a polpette without the peppers but substituted with green olives and it came with NO olives but far too many onions. Our second calzone was pepperoni, prosciuttos, mushrooms and onions and came with NO mushrooms. We have decided to stop coming to this restaurant and to let our friends know about this situation we had with our order and the lack of service on a Monday night..
Drove up to location and the exterior is not that interesting nor is it in an 'upscale' area but that's what we loved about it. Kinda like a hidden gem in this 'unassuming' and 'construction' like area. As soon as we walked in, the atmosphere was relaxed, inviting and welcoming. We were warmly welcomed, service was perfect as we were not in any hurry so the server matched our state. The salad, pizzas and beer were all more than we expected in quality, taste, presentation and size. Plenty to take home for leftovers. Will definitely return.
We have had 4 pasta dishes from here along with the ceasar salad. All have been incredible - especially for take out ! My favorite would have to be the ravioli! Such incredible flavors and the cream sauce is just amazing!
Over priced, no taste. They don't use fresh ingredients. And we ordered a penne and got fettuccine and penne noodles. I've tried this place twice and both times, highly disappointed.
My experiences have only been amazing. My wife and I have ordered a variety of pastas and they are always delicious
