| - Sweet baby Jesus! I am carrying the most massive food baby right now.
My husband was craving pasta so I researched some new places we could go to get some. Oregano's seemed to be a big hit so we settled on this place for dinner tonight. Let me tell you... no matter how hard you try, you will not leave here hungry.
There was no wait for a table and we got to sit out on the patio. It was so nice outside tonight and the misters were going. It was very enjoyable. Our server was very friendly and fast. I like that the drink glasses are gigantic. Usually my husband and I drink water faster than it can be poured but these were so huge we only needed one refill the entire meal, and even before the glass was empty our server picked them up to get refilled. Points for that. I hate empty water glasses. We decided on the boom dip to start. It was good, nice chunks of spinach and artichokes, but it was extremely oily. It sits too heavy in my belly. This alone almost filled me up, so I can see someone making a meal out of just an appetizer.
I decided on the big rig pasta and my husband got the alfredo. The portions were so huge! But his was not that good. Sort of bland. I was expecting it to be a lot creamier and have a more spicy flavor. Mine was really good though. It wasn't too spicy, but I was expecting more of a kick, and it had a nice creamy sauce. Pretty much by the time our pasta was in front of us I was full from the dip so I ate a few bites and had it packed up to go. I definitely have lunches for the next two days. By this point we were both so full it hurt, so we ordered the pizza cookie to go so we could eat it at home. Which was the perfect amount of time to start digesting some food. In the 30 minutes it took to bake it, pay, drive back home, and get inside I was already ready to eat it. So we sat on the couch and devoured the entire thing in less than five minutes. Food baby number two of the night.
I really liked the food here. You get ginormous portions so you are more than likely always going to take food home. It wasn't too expensive. $35 for the two of us for one appetizer, two pastas, and desert. I think next time we will nix the appetizer and just go with dinner. But the pizza cookie is definitely worth getting at least once. I may not come back right away but I'll definitely be visiting again.
