This place seems to want to get rich off being featured on Food Network. There's a big banner out front now and there are pictures all over the place of the owner (i'm guessing) and Guy. Anyway, this is why I decided to try the place at all so maybe it worked.
My friend ordered the chicken parmigiana sandwich and I went with the Linguine with Red Clam sauce. Its a very tiny place with plastic patio chairs. We waited for about 20 min so we had time to check out the decor.
The prices are crazy! They charge as much as a full Italian restaurant does - I've never seen a diner, drive thru or a dive that charges so much per plate! Skimming the menu, I'd say the average entree is about 12, appetizer is 8, desert is 5.
So by the time we got our food we were starving, but we managed to drive home which was about 5 min away. They gave me a few pieces of bread for my pasta which was very good (and very surprising because bread is on the menu for like $5). The pasta was overcooked and the sauce was WAAAY salty. The portion wasn't what I expected for the price I paid at a "dive". The sandwich was a little better, but nothing special. I work at a hospital and I'd say their chicken parmigian is better.
All in all, this wasn't the best experience. I say if they want to charge so much, open an actual restaurant. Then maybe they can serve some liquor instead of just having pictures of wine bottles everywhere and empty vodka bottles holding flowers. (Its BYOB, $5 corkage fee). I'm very disappointed in Food Network. :\
