Garlic herb butter and bread is always a great way to start a meal. I had the made-in-house pappardelle with scallops and mushrooms, and my wife had the special rigatoni di bosco.
The pappardelle is the real deal, and the cream sauce matched the noodle perfectly. The scallops were a bit tough, but what can you expect being so far from the coast.
The rigatoni was good, but not great. Given it was mostly vegetables with italian sausage, it needed a bit more spice than was on the dish.
The only sour note was that the Pepsi fountain tasted off. Sort of when you get mixed flavors from a bar wand.
Overall, everything was high on the list as far as authenticity. Price-wise, I thought it was about $5 a dish higher than the value received, perhaps due to the small owner-operated business. But it won't keep us from coming back.
