OK, here is the thing I usually do not read reviews of a place. I am going to visit for the first time my wife read some reviews that were positive and negative with that being said I went with a totally complete open mind. let’s start with the atmosphere. It was very nice very clean and pretty darn cool, our server Marcelo was perfect. He was very personable very courteous, very polite and totally very helpful. We started with the toasted raviolis.(which is the reason I went for in the first place) they were great. My wife had the combo plate which was lasagna spaghetti and chicken Parm. The lasagna was outstanding. I just did the chicken Parm plate and it was delicious. My wife said something in the reviews about the sticky tables. Ours was sticky, but Marcello came and cleaned it, and it was still sticky. I talked to the manager Jessica. She told us the issue was the cleaning people use the wrong cleaning solution on the tables which caused this to happen and they are going to resolve that issue very soon so definitely if you like Italian food check this place out. It was delicious service was great so shop local, eat local and spend local. and by the way Jessica, the manager was very nice and very helpful. She was a really cool lady.

Pros:

Big restaurant, nicely decorated (even more so since we came around Christmas), and even has a fireplace.

Tasty food. We got the family size Italian nachos (pita chips instead of tortilla chips) and the stuffed mushrooms. There was a complimentary piece of buttered bread that you could dip in oil before the meal arrived.

Cons:

Towards the end our waitress got caught up with another customer who I think was a personal friend. They were talking for a long time to the point that I ended up asking another waitress for the check and to go boxes.

Excellent experience ordering 9 layer Lasagna through the website. It was ready on time as promised & the staff was very helpful and quick. There is a bar inside with drink/food specials & even side area that would work excellent for large parties.

Went there during their special for all you can eat salad and shrimp with a pasta dish.

The bread with the dipping sauce was amazing.

Salad with house dressing was good

The shrimp or crispy.

The server Marcelo was great and always coming back with refills and checking if there was anything we needed.

I definitely recommend this place. Check their websites for daily deals. You won't be disappointed.

Good food and better service. No complaints from waited to be seated and get our bill. Our server was friendly and courteous.

We started with two appetizers. Crispy seasoned Calamari with firied banana peppers. Stuff cheesey spinach mushrooms were tasty.

For main we had family portion chicken parma with pasta. Enough for 3 or 4 servings. Shrimp scampi pasta was amazing with a butter olive oil sauce. Shrimp pasta Alfredo was done right.

For dessert we had creamy moist tiramisu with house coffee. I need the coffee for drive home.

Overall a good dining option when in eastvalle.

I was amazed the first time I came to this restaurant. I forgot my servers name but he was fantastic at his job. Second time i was disappointed withe the service. It was not a busy night and employees seemed to be congregated instead of checking on guests. Had to get up a couple of times to get refills or utensils. However, for both visits the food was amazing. I have never tasted such a great pizza and I was shocked to find out that their spicy wings were delicious. Perfect date night environment or with friends

DIRTY BATHROOMS & VIOLENTLY ILL. I was motivated to come here because I always been a fan of this place for many years. On Sunday I seen a commercial for an all you can eat shrimp special so I called to make sure it was still going on and told them I would be in the next day for it (Monday).. Showed up Monday and the waiter said the special had ended on Sunday- no problem I was going to order something else anyhow but my son was interested in the shrimp deal. I used the bathroom to my regret as they will haunt my dreams for a while. The toilets were disgusting and the toilet seats were something you would see in a horror movie. So gross for food handlers to be using a facility in that condition. Anyhow I ordered the potato soup and spicy chicken and shrimp Romano. Be also warned that if you order their chicken sandwiches it’s just the standard dipping bread they give you in the beginning w extremely thin sliced chicken. The bread they served for my son’s sandwich was so hard n gross (his words) I offered to him to pack up the inside on his sandwich as we can put in on some sourdough at home, but the thin slices he had were not worth saving. So sad to see the quality drop substantially at a once great place. Hours later I had the food poisoning feeling we all know and hate. It was terrible I was crying in my bathroom so defeated. To put a cherry on top for just my son and I eating there our bill was $63 and that doesn’t include a tip. So I called the next day and I believe the woman who answered was named Araceli. I told her the story of how I got sick and their food was the only thing I ate. I told her everything-the dirty restrooms and she had an excuse for everything. She didn’t ask for my name or number for any type of feedback for me so I knew she really didn’t give a rats booty. So here I am sharing my tragic story with yall of how I had a terrible breakup with my once favorite Italian restaurant.

Our waitress was very attentive to our table of six. The only dish we didn’t like was the calamari appetizer because it was dry. The free bread with olive oil was warm and fresh. We ordered more during the meal it was that good. Our pasta dishes were tasty and more than enough for one person. The tiramisu was also tasty and fresh. Will go back to try the lemon pepper wings.
