This wasn't the best Italian food I've ever eaten, but it certainly wasn't the worst.
I had a group of 18 people I had to feed and Battista's was very accommodating. Salad and hot chocolate for dessert was included with our meal. Not to mention the free red and white table wine. For the price, the wine was great. The service was excellent.
My scampi was under seasoned, but the portion was large. I couldn't finish.
Considering that the Rat Pack used to hang there, it was worth going. At least once.
