Nothing to see here, move along.
Mediocre food. Bland. Overcooked. Gummy/Pasty Pasta.
Not horrible, but with the number of really good independent Italian restaurants in the valley - why waste your time and money?
Specifics:
Manicotti - Filled with a tasteless ricotta cheese paste that could double as drywall filler, topped with warm crushed tomatoes and a couple shreds of melted mozzarella.
Fettuccine Alfredo - The pasta was sticky and gummy. The "Alfredo" sauce was a plain white sauce with flecks of something that may have been an attempt at seasoning.
Italian Sausage - Way overcooked, dry, like trying to saw wood when cutting into it. Nicely spicy though.
Chicken Piccata - Beaten and lightly fried the cutlet was nonetheless dry. Topped with a mixture of mushrooms, capers, and tomatoes. Not just topped, buried under. Disappointing and still the best dish served.
