Meh. That's how I feel after dinner here tonight. To be fair, this is almost always how I feel about most Italian restaurants... like I could have made it at home myself.
Went here tonight (Tuesday) at 6:30 pm with a party of 6. Had reservations, but they definitely weren't necessary. I think there were only 6 tables filled at any given time throughout our meal. A few people were coming in and out for take-out meals.
I had the eggplant Parmesan. Not the best. Not the worst. It was served with a side salad. Iceburg lettuce with a few tomatoes, red onion, cheese, and black olives. Pretty standard. I had the Italian dressing, which is served on the side (lid and all!). The dressing was way to vinegary to me tonight. Left a tang on my tongue (for lack of a better way to describe it). Also served with endless garlic rolls on the table. These are tasty and buttery, but kind of seem like something I could make at home in the oven myself... like those texas toast garlic stick things, but smaller.
Anyway, the main event, the eggplant, was OK. Just okay. The portion size was ENORMOUS. I think I got an entire eggplant. Came with a side of spaghetti and marinara. House made noodles, per the menu. I'm not sure I would have noticed if the menu didn't say it. The plating made it kind of weird to eat. I had a mound of spaghetti and a whole plate of eggplant. I probably should have asked for a 3rd plate, but really it would be nice if they were both on one bigger plate. Everything was just "fine". Again, kind of seemed like something I could have made at home. That being said, if you're looking for a meal with a "home cooked" feel to it - this might be your place. My rule is usually that I don't want to pay someone to cook something for me that I think i can easily make myself.
