Food quality ranges from good to bad.
Bad:
1) terrible tomato sauces for pasta --overly greasy and too garlicky (and I love garlic and olive oil).
2) Cheap flavorless olive oil and wimpy balsamic vinegar (this one is more forgiveable than the first item).
3) Overcooked lamb.
4) Burnt black pizza crust. Soggy pizza crust. Poorly distributed stuff on pizza (with really large areas of bread "desert."
5) Three "make your own pastas" were ordered and two were made with wrong combinations.
6) Overwhelmed manager.
7) Icky tasting ice.
Good:
1) lemon dessert (really, really good),
2) chocolate dessert,
3) red snapper fish dish,
4) cream pastas in general,
5) room with fireplace has nice atmosphere.
6) nice waitstaff.
Meh:
1) salads.
2) Only have Diet Coke --not Coke Zero.
3) Margherita pizza....nice elements, but soggy crust and inadequate basil.
Bottom line: I wouldn't go back here by choice, but if I go again, I will probably order a fish dish. The cream pastas are tasty, but not really a healthy choice.
Portions are smaller as other writers have noted. This is probably better for the American diet in general, but makes for disappointing leftovers.
We were a large group...not sure if that is why so much of our order was messed up by kitchen...
