I went to Buddy V's with some out of town guests who love Italian. The location is good, the ambiance nice, the service was decent. The food was just OK; Not great by any means. Maybe I had high expectations, but I was seriously disappointed and so were my guests. I had the carbonara, it was super salty. My husband had the clams. He was not impressed. The ceasar salad was excellent. For the price, not a great value.
