| - This is my second time visiting an Italian restaurant around the area in a week. I went with my friend and the restaurant was not difficult to spot at all. They do have ample parking in the back which is perfect and its free.
However, they have two "entrances" into the restaurant. Usually you have clients entering into a restaurant from the front. However in this restaurant, you have to enter from the back. There is not a clear sign saying "entrance" or "welcome", or any indication to let you know that you have to enter from the back. The entrance from the front, is the exact. My friend and I entered from the front, and lo and behold, we had an awkward moment when walking to the back of the restaurant to give our reservation information.
That being aside, it did not take long for the waiter to come to our table and take our orders. FYI we are both vegetarians. We ordered Bruschetta for the appetizer to share, and its 6 pieces which is average in terms of portion for two people to share. I've had my fair share of Bruschetta and this place makes it just right. For the entrees, my friend ordered the Mediterraneo pizza and I ordered the Fettuccine alla
Greca pasta. Total wait time to get our entrees was roughly around 30 minutes, which I guess was normal as it was a Friday night, and it was busy inside. However the waiter did come to our table to apologize and said it wouldn't take longer. As soon as he did, it only took 5 minutes and we got our entrees.
My friend said it was worth the wait as he enjoyed his pizza. As for my pasta, the portion size was perfect and the taste was good. However, the only one drawback was that for the first few minutes it was nice and hot. Then, after those few minutes, the pasta became warm, to the point it was almost cold. Rather, it did not retain its heat as per my expectations.
Overall I'd still come back here, but it definitely loses a star for those two things that I mentioned above: 1) No clear signage indicating the entrance is in the back of the restaurant, and 2) The pasta became almost cold after 10 minutes.
