My wife and I went to this restaurant on a recommendation of a friend. We were super excited to try it out and have some good Italian food. Boy, was I in for a rude awakening.
When we walked in, we were greeted right away, and led to our seats. The waitress got what we wanted to drink, never mentioned her name, and came back with drinks.
They serve bread here similar to chips and cheese at a Mexican restaurant. The marinara sauce that you can get with it (it’s $4.95 extra) I’m pretty sure it’s heated up out of a can. They brought this out shortly after serving drinks.
The menu is full of options, but nothing is explained well in my opinion. I asked the waitress what her favorite one was, since I was a first-time guest. She told me that it was the Chicken, Veal, Shrimp Tetrazzini. I wasn’t wanting shrimp, so I went ahead and ordered the Sausage Pizzaola. We alwere served hot food within 10-15 minutes.
Breakdown of each menu item:
My wife got the chicken, veal, and shrimp tetrazzini. She said she was surprised if it was actually veal (she said it was tough and didn’t eat it all). She let me have the rest of her shrimp and those were actually good.
The meal that I got, the sausage pizzaola was bland. Pretty sure the sausage was eckrich sausage from Walmart. The pasta I’m pretty sure was simple great value pasta. The whole dish was just a 3/10.
Overall, we ended up paying between $60 and $70 (tip included) for extremely watered down Italian food. I wouldn’t even call it Italian honestly. It was bland and unseasoned. The bread was the best part of the entire meal.
Whenever you get your check, it’s written like an invoice with no total. They don’t actually have your total on there, you have to manually calculate it up yourself. Unless you just want to go straight to the cash register and pay then
I’ll preface the next thing by saying this. This location is an old Montana Mike’s steakhouse. It closed down several years ago. I don’t think the new owners did anything to make it feel Italian. It still feels like an old country steakhouse that just so happens to serve watered down Italian food. The closest thing that made it feel Italian was the Italian music they had playing in the background.
Was highly disappointed from this trip, and me and my wife won’t be back. If I’m going to get authentic Italian food, I’ll go somewhere else.
Don’t waste your money!!!

Man, the warm breath is amazing. My clams in white wine sauce is fantastic.
Really awesome Italian food.
The Ceasars salad was good but this last time I tried the house Italian dressing…..its red in color. It was really good. Try it.

I’m pretty disappointed. My husband and I came on the recommendation of a friend, and it did not meet our expectations. We were super excited for some excellent Italian food, and what we got instead was mediocre at best. I ordered the veal, chicken, and shrimp plate with white sauce and spaghetti noodles. The sauce was pretty watered down, the dish was very under seasoned, the noodles overcooked, and the veal very tough. I got a Ceasar side salad, and it was over sauced for my liking. On a good note, the lettuce was crisp and seemed fresh.
The best part of the experience was the excellent customer service. Our waitress was attentive (but not overly so), prompt, and sweet.
The restaurant was clean, and from what I could see of the kitchen it was spotless.
If you’re looking for authentic Italian food, I would not choose this establishment.

I’ve never had bad food here. Service is always good. Bread is hot and fresh. Pasta is homemade. The Stromboli is my favorite! The pizza is awesome! Save room for the Lemoncello cake! Don’t miss this place!

We came In and everything was fine ambiance was fine server was nice and whatever the food is just bad. I don’t know if they have just a bunch of white ladies back there cooking or what but it didn’t have any flavor. I got the tortellini modo mío and the best part of my meal was having so much plain chicken left over for me to construct a chicken tower. Also the sweet tea was sooo sweet and I like my sweet tea sweet if you get a sweet tea you’re gonna want it halfcut.

Everything was enjoyable to a point.
We were a little taken back that my husband and son was charged every cup of coffee and glass of iced tea the drank. Even when the menu says free refills.
My husband was also a little put off over the pasta sampler. It was just all shoved into a small little baking dish and smothered in cheese to where you could not even see what was in it or what you were about to eat. He did enjoyed what little he got after he removed the pound of mozzarella covering the top. All he got in the sampler was, 1 piece of ravioli, 1 little piece of manicotti and a small chunk of lasagna under some marinara, and like i said, a pound of cheese.
He said that he does not want to return. He said that if he had seen what he was going to order he would have opted out of it.
I have to agree, the description of the dishes is okay to a point. However, photos would be a wonderful addition.
I ordered the Linguini Tuttonmare, and my mental picture of what I read was nothing like what I received.
Is it supposed to be like a soup?
The seafood tasted fine, however the broth, had no flavor and made the noodles to where I could not eat them as the texture was unpleasant. I never finished my meal at all. Sad because the seafood portion was lovely.
I understand this is an authentic Italian restaurant, and maybe that is the issue with my dish and my pallet.
As far as the service goes, it was okay. Not the best really. Our server was very nice, however, he seemed overwhelmed.
I do really enjoy the food that I have had before. This was the 1st time I had came in and had dinner. The bread and the dipping oil was amazing as always. Our son really enjoyed his meal! We ordered dessert and YUMMY!!! I am getting the Tiramisu next time! I tasted my husband’s and I was jealous! Our son and I each had a Cannoli.
We did enjoy our meal, even with the set backs.

This is a spacious restaurant. The staff are attentive. I’ve eaten here a few times, but the last time has decreased in quality due to food preparation. I am not a fan of the carbonara with tomatoes. The tomato based sauce is flavorful and not too acidic or overpowering. The spices and seasonings elevated the flavor profile. Great venue for a group lunch or outing.

Okay I tried the restaurant and ordered a chicken dish and the chicken had a weird kind of an old chicken taste with no seasoning and it overpowered the dish. To the point it was not good to even eat because of the chicken. The server was very nice and attentive so I told him I would still pay for it even though I took a couple bites out of it and figured I would try good old spaghetti and meat sauce because that would be pretty hard to mess up. It was okay not bad not great. I ended up paying for 2 entrees and probably will not go back but at least I tried. The servers were friendly and I think they could try their native Cuisine out of the old building.

The atmosphere and service were great, but the food, not so much. The pasta was overcooked and mushy. The stromboli was also overcooked to the point of almost being burnt and was barely warm. The saving grace was the italian bread. That was delicious! Probably will not be returning.

Amazing authentic Italian food! Rolls are fresh and delicious. Lots of great choices, and always freshly prepared. My husband and I celebrated our 25th Anniversary here and it was so good. I definitely recommend!
