Let me first say that I'm a north central native and appreciate patronizing local establishments who deserve my business. However, I have an issue with this below average Italian restaurant. Average food, dated ambiance, and when entering through the east entrance there is an overwhelming smell that reminds one of a nursing home. I will say that the service is typically good. A huge makeover, including improving food, updating the interior, or at least more of a classic Italian feel, and take care of the foul smell, could really help this below average dining option. This hasn't always been the case for this restaurant. They really need to address these issues. A better choice would be L'Amore or Tomaso's.
