My husband and I have went to this restaurant on 2 separate occasions after seeing appealing surf and turf specials advertised on face book by malacari’s , these were not old outdated posts ( just posted again yesterday) . I was seated by 5:30 both nights , 1 night we were told the specials were changed and it was now spaghetti night and tonight we were told they ran out of surf and turf. Last time we ordered overpriced pasta that was watery this time we just ordered pizza after our last dinner experience there. I feel as though this restaurant is using a fishing technique with specials they don’t really have or have very few of in order to dive business into their establishment.

Expensive. The food was fair at best. Terrible service. With a party of eight it took 3 hours start to finish. Without getting into everything. My cheese steak was cooked until it was so dry I couldn’t eat it. It was really a bad experience
Parking: Not much parking. You might have to park in the lot next door
Kid-friendliness: No menu for kids. Online it shows a kids menu but when you’re there they don’t know anything about it

Restaurant was half empty. We were a party of 8 with reservations. We sat, and waited. Waitress finally came for drink orders. Then came back for dinner orders. Um, We never got a menu!! Finally We ordered. Others were getting their bread & salads & food and we were waiting some more. Finally we asked one of the helpers for bread. And we waited some more. I asked various people to check on our dinners since it was getting very upsetting. Our ‘waitress’ never came back till after dinner was served to us by helpers and we were done eating. Waited 1 1/2 hrs for food. But she took her 20% tip that was included. If it wasn’t for the helpers, we would still be there 8 hrs later. It was a special occasion. I was embarrassed that I recommended the place. None of us will ever go back!!!
Parking: Parking lot is terrible. Very unorganized. Pavement areas (where there was pavement) was very uneven. Easy to trip on uneven areas. Rest was grass or dirt.
Kid-friendliness: No menu for kids.

Something has happened to the restaurant we go to for our anniversaries years in a row definitely went down ...husband was disappointed he said he would had preferred olive garden instead ...but your male bartender definitely deserves a raise ...had I known it went that down hill we would have passed....Friday night and empty restaurant and fruit flies and mediocre food was a let down ....but ice cream is a 10 and the bartenders drinks are a 10

The inside of the restaurant is beautiful and roomy and its size is deceptive from the outside (I thought it would be smaller). The bread is served warm with oil and spices, the salad had mixed green, tomatoes and carrots and was fresh and filling
I had the mushroom risotto with a side of shrimp on it was jam packed with flavor. It was over the top. I also had a cannoli to go and it was fresh and very tasty.

Came for dinner last week, there was a small group of us. The bread is tasty, the salads came out very quickly. The vodka sauce was delicious, the kids chicken tender portion was pretty big, but the kids loved them. Desserts were also great. Our waitress was the sweetest and kept conversation everytime she stopped over. We will most definitely be back soon.
