| - Have been here three times now since they move the to their new location. When they first moved to the new location, I thought this would be a mistake for them. A very out of the way location just West of Ellsworth on Germann.. Boy was I wrong!!!
Third time through last night. Went with visiting family. We were late getting out the door for dinner so did not get there until almost 7:30 p.m. The parking lot was packed as was the restaurant.
Now, I have to say one thing before I move on... It is one thing to go out to dinner with family/friends to enjoy an evening out. I am all about sitting around the table for a nice conversation and laughs... But if you have finished your meal and find that you are sitting around all the while the restaurant is packed with people waiting for a table, then maybe it is time to pack up and leave. It is the respectful thing to do. It is one thing to sit around a table when the restaurant is not very busy.. But when it is packed and there is a line out the door, taking up space to sit around and talk for hours is not only rude to the waiting people, but the staff that have to service your table. The server makes money based on tips and therefore is dependent on the number of people that they can get through their tables. Not too mention the restaurant itself that is dependent on the number of customers it can service to make money. When you sit around, you are hurting their ability to make money. Move to the bar or simply get out. But don't take up a table for hours after you have finished your meal when there are people waiting.
With that said, we arrived to a packed restaurant. We were told that it would be about 35 minutes, but with the VERY RUDE couple of tables that wanted to sit around and talk, it ended up being an hour...
They do take reservations. And I would recommend them or getting there early, before 5:30 if you don't want to wait. At least on a Friday or Saturday night..
Table ordered:
Pepperoni Pizza, Baked Stuffed Shells with Meat Sauce, Shrimp & Asparagus in Vodka Sauce on Angel Hair - Special of Night, and Chicken and Shrimp Capricioso with Angel Hair.
All food was very good. Very traditional Italian.
No appetizers for table last night, but have had the Bruschetta in past and it has been very good.
Table is also supplied with unlimited fresh baked bread which is outstanding.
In the past have had several different pasta dishes. And also the Chicken Parmigiana. All have been very good.
Service is very slow, which is why I don't provide the 5th Star. And has been each time we have been there. Staff just does not seem to be in any hurry.
I also happened to watch while the owner appeared to be training a new waitress at front of house. Was close enough that I could over hear him giving lectures and teaching. Then watched as he went over different wines on menu. Now, as slow as the service is, I would think that you would find a better time to train instead of Friday night at the busiest time...
But give it a try. You won't be disappointed. But plan ahead. You cannot be in a hurry when you go...
