Provided by YP.comService was good, but food was BLAH and expensive! Went here cause my friend was boasted how good it was and I couldnt have been more dissapointed. I got the chicken parm for $16.95, which i though was ok until they wanted more money for a salad with your dinner. Anyway, the place had about 5 tables of 2- to 3 people in it. and half were served already. It took 45 mInutes for our food to come out of the kitchen when we didnt order appetizers. When our food did arrive all the pasta dishes had the pasta not fully cooked, not even al dente. The sauce was oily and tasted like jar sauce that had been doctored up. The chicken was dry and tasted like it had been deep fried in old fryer oil. Being an italian, it was a shock to me that the pasta was not only severely undercooked, but cheap pasta. Why would you use cheap pasta, so stupid. Do you really think people wont notice when it tastes like someone poured starch in your mouth. To make matters worse, I figured well at least I can cover the taste of the bad food with Parmesan cheese, but the waiter served it to you by sprinkling it over your food and did not leave it at the table. What a bunch of cheapos! This place cuts corners left and right to screw over thier patrons to make a buck. I would never recommend this place to anyone.
