| - As per expected from a mass-produced hot table for the lunch crowd. Nothing more, nothing less.
I've had Palma Pasta bookmarked for a while, but only got to it now. Atmosphere was clean, there was a small dine-in area, and it wasn't busy at 12:30pm. Offerings were various types of pastas including tortellini, penne, lasagna ($5.75, but not sure of serving size), & one in a cream sauce. There were also cuts of meats (veal, chicken) in sauces for Italian sandwiches.
Lady behind the counter was efficient and seemed friendly.
I got the special of the day, Chicken Sorrentino (basically a flat, breaded white meat with another flat, breaded piece of eggplant with some melted cheese & tomato on top) with pasta at $7.95. Portion was decent for price, at least 2-3 servings.
I choose the penne and it was alright. Made from dry pasta, slightly overcooked, sauce was nothing special. Chicken faired slightly better, breading was seasoned, but chicken itself was not. Sorta bland.
Criticism: Packaging did not survive the trip to Square One, a 2.5 block drive! Cardboard cover came loose and spilled all inside the plastic bag, making the eating a bit difficult.
Would I go back? Maybe if I was in the area. Are there better options? Definitely!
