| - Came on a Sunday late afternoon - in a nutshell - whacky decor, friendly waiters, decent value..
The value - decent. Kids meals were about $8 including a drink, an appy, and bottomless garlic bread. Pretty standard though I didn't find the pasta to be that phenomenal (then again, it's a kids meal). The adult meals are pricier (we opted for the $20 seafood linguine) and some spaghetti with Mizithra cheese ($15), but again with bread, appy, and coffee/tea included.
The food - quality was mixed. Minestrone soup appy was nice and not overly salty, whereas the side salad was drenched in running dressing. The garlic bread was incredible. The seafood linguine also was a nice surprise - I'm not a pasta person but this really hit the spot. However, the spaghetti with Mizithra cheese was insanely salty and not edible - that thing should come with a warning label. In fairness, we were offered a couple of times to swap for something else if anything wasn't to our liking, so that was nice.
The service was also touch and go. The waitress was friendly but very obviously overloaded - she came by rarely and when she did it was to very quickly throw down some food before jumping away to cater to another table. I sense she had too many tables on the go. Not bad, but not great.
The kids loved it though - so we'll probably come back for a birthday or other occasion. Not a place I would probably visit again if it wasn't for the kids though.
