| - Fun name. Apt touches of western sub-genre film posters. Warm colors and wood paneling evoke a modern saloon feel -- you'd halfway expect a space cowboy to walk in, but then you remember you're nestled in a shopping plaza in the heart of Southern Highlands.
More often than not, my bf and I venture out to new places with the practicality of a Groupon. This was one of those days. I bought a $20 lunch voucher for about half the price, then just paid the difference. We visited at the tail-end of lunchtime, so the place was practically empty.
Our server was great. He started us off with drinks and appetizers. We decided on a plate of their FETTUNTA, a 5-piece garlic bread with olive oil and a side of marinara. Reminded me of Texas toast, but with herbs. I got the PASTA PESTO made with FETTUCINE. I had the choice of plain or creamy, so I went with creamy -- good choice. My bf kept it simple and got the SPAGHETTY MEATBALLS, with 3 large house made meatballs included.
Their pasta selection can be overwhelming. There's a section of CLASSIC, which offers your choice of pasta: spaghetti, penne, linguine, fettucine, capelli; for $2 more: gnocchi, pappardelle, cavatelli; for $3 more: cheese tortellini, mushroom or lobster or butternut squash ravioli. Then they have more items under PASTA SPECIALS as well as under PASTA DI MADRE. So safe to say, there's no shortage of pasta here. Price ranges from $12.95 - $24.95. Hellooo carbs!
Overall, we had an enjoyable lunch. I had read some of the reviews on here and was a little hesitant to try because of the unprofessional responses that could have been dealt with better, but we didn't encounter anything like that. Grab the Groupon!
