Surprisingly delicious! My son and I dropped by Buddy V's for lunch and really enjoyed it. We sort of expected a "cheesy," chain style feeling. We were wrong! The restaurant is spacious and nicely decorated. He had the $22 Express Lunch (he chose meatballs, chicken parm and a cannoli) and I chose the Caesar salad with grilled shrimp (included these amazing polenta croutons!). Everything was tasty and the portion sizes were filling and just right for lunch. The service was extremely friendly and attentive from the servers, hostess, busboy, etc. We look forward to visiting Buddy V's again next time we're in town and would recommend it for anyone looking for a casual, low-key, fair priced and tasty meal.
