I am going to do this review in paragraph, rather than my normal bullet style:)
I have eaten at Del's several times over my lifetime. As a child, as an adult and most recently post Restaurant impossible. Going in I was not expecting much( having heard they reverted back to their old ways). However I was moderately impressed! Our waiter was good, attentive and prompt. The bread basket with dipping oil was decent and the meals were above average. My go to dish in an Italian joint is- chicken parm. I expect the chicken to be breast( not high school caferteria cutlet), the sauce to be thick and the noodles to be al dente. At Del's, I received all of the above. The sauce was not as good as my Grandama's,but it was decent, they used fettuccine noodles which were cooked firm and the breast was thick and juicy.
We did not sample desserts so I can not attest to those. I will say one thing about the bathrooms as I have a thing about restrooms.. .. UPDATE THEM!!! The tile was cracked, the sinks that old speckled tops and overall just looked.. well- yucky!
My overall impression of the food was not nearly as bad as I anticipated. I would not suggest or seek this place out, but I would not cringe if someone suggested it.
