| - This was my first time at Oregano's. I have two words for this place: carbs + cheese. We started out with the kickbutt garlic bread, which was a loaf about the length of my arm and forearm combined. Adding that extra $1.00 cheese to the bread was definitely worth it. I simply couldn't resist that garlicky, buttery spread. You also have the option of dipping it with homemade marinara for an extra $.89. We also had the zany ziti pasta, which was ziti pasta with a sausage sauce intermixed with four Italian cheeses. It was deliciously cheesy. In terms of pizza, we ordered the 12" pan pizza with cheese starting at $13.99, adding Cajun chicken & Roma tomatoes for $1.99 each topping. There were 30 different toppings to choose from. The crust was thick & crispy to my liking. I definitely utilized the red pepper flakes and oregano shakes at the table. My friend also requested extra cheese added to the pasta, and was given freshly grated parmesan - always a plus. The food was amazing, but I plan to do some cardio tonight and eat a lot of fiber. It might be wise to order one of their big salads to fill you up to avoid indulging too much. On the way out, they have an abundance of peppermint candy and fortune cookies up for grabs.
This place is always busy. We waited about 20 minutes around lunchtime on a Saturday before being seated. I would love to give this place four stars, but the service really needs improvement. Our server initially forgot to bring us the missing set of utensils. We had to ask for it again. While we were dining in, she did not refill our waters. I do give her credit for checking on us once in awhile, and boxing up our food. After paying with my credit card, we were about to leave when I double checked the receipt and noticed it was charged incorrectly. We were billed for the previous table's check on top of ours. I would have been paying an extra $24 for one extra pizza and drink that I did not order. I was not a happy camper. Remember to check your bill carefully.
