I was out looking for a place for a late lunch in rural Geauga County, and found that the pickins are slim. Mangia's entry on here was pretty good, so we decided to check it out. I have no complaints with the service, but the food is mediocre at best.
I had the eggplant parmagiana and my partner had the chicken parm. Both dishes were essentially pre-formed, pre-breaded patties covered by a thin layer of marinara sauce and a slice of provalone that was placed under a heating element. Both meals came with a side of pasta, which, had it been a steak, would have been great because it was tender and you could cut it with a fork. But it wasn't a steak ... it was pasta. And pasta shouldn't be "fork tender."
Don't get me wrong, it didn't taste bad ... it was perfectly edible, but it's not anything an Italian might recognize as food of the motherland.
