I know I know, a chain restaurant. However, sometimes you really want the familiar and this place definitely delivers that. This particular Romano's Macaroni Grill is very clean, and probably unfortunately for them, typically fairly quiet. This location is very close to my home so my husband go here for a quick Italian bite if we don't feel like cooking or venturing too far from home.
We've never had an issue with any of the staff here. We're always sat quickly and served beverages, plus their rosemary bread, promptly. All the staff are very friendly and typically seem quite happy to serve you and answer any questions you may have. I have to say that I absolutely love their rosemary bread (often times my husband and I ask for a loaf to go because it's just so wonderful!). They typically do some sort of nightly special, which never disappoints. This has even included a lamb entree previously that was perfect.
The place also has a full bar (duh) with plenty of wine selections (and their menus even go so far as to recommend what wine pairs with what entree, pretty neat).
While this place is just a chain, it is a very well maintained, and well staffed location that is a top choice for decent Italian.
