| - I dined here on Friday and despite some issues with the service/kitchen, I will definetly be back.
We were able to get a table without reservations or a wait at around 6pm on a Friday which was a pleasant surprise! The restaurant is nice and cozy inside, if a bit loud. My friends were already dining on the fried cheese balls, which were described by the waiter as "an explosion in your mouth of cheesy goodness." cheesy goodness explosion? sign me up. I'm not even going to try to act like a refined foodie I will do damn near anything for cheese and brother, we had CHEESE.
they brought bread out, and it was pretty good but not interesting bc it did not contain cheese. I ordered the chicken piccatta, one friend had chicken cacciatore, another had the lasagna, and then my healthy vegetarian friend had some dish of marinated vegetables.
who the hell cares about marinated vegetables? that was the one dish I did not sample as it did not contain cheese.
The wine list was also very good and the waiter knew what he was talking about and I did not find the upcharge outrageous.
The chicken cacciatore was pretty good. Here's the thing: my friend who got it alwyas plays it cool so she was all, "It's alright." I tasted it, and it was good as hell! Its hard to mix sausage and chicken in one dish but this was pretty good.
My friend has the lasagna and it was so good as soon as I took a bite I was so overwhelmed by how good it was I smacked him in the shoulder. It was AMAZING. I dont know how it is sooo good, I think it is layered with alternating layers of cocaine, love, and cheese.
In a lame attempt to be healthy, I ordered the chicken piccatta. When a waiter says, "you know, its good but here's what I recommend..." I need to learn to recognize that for the "get something else!" that statement is.
For some reason my entree came out 10 min after everyone elses. I ordered it bc I thought it would be healthier than heavy pasta but it was swimming in a lemon butter sauce that was not healthy but very good. There were capers in the dish too and they were the only thing interesting about it. This dish was pleasant but unremarkable and underwhelming. Get something else. Ask the waiter what to get and then trust his judgement.
I will def be back, and the next time I am back I think I'll try the pizza that they are so famous for. I highly recommend this restaurant if you have not been there..
