| - We arrived just after noon on a holiday, and there was no lineup when we got there. When we left there were a few groups waiting. Our server was great, the breadsticks and salad arrived quickly after our iced teas. When that was done the three dishes we'd ordered arrived. Of the three dishes, our kid loved the chicken alfredo, I was fine with the eggplant parmagiana, and my wife liked her tortellini. I usually like the vegetarian options that restaurants offer, but the eggplant was a tasteless paste battered and fried and covered in cheese. Which my kid enjoyed, of course, because it no longer resembled eggplant.
Another bonus was when we sat down our server offered us a complimentary sample of wine, which we declined, but it seemed like a nice touch. On the down side, the side of spaghetti that came with the eggplant had the most boring marinara sauce ever. But I never order spaghetti. I assume we were supposed to cover it with cheese and salt and pepper, while I prefer a chunkier sauce with garlic, onions and fried vegetables (which we make at home).
Next time we'll try the pizzas.
