"It's like Cheesecake Factory on mushrooms.\n\nWhy you wonder?\n\nBecause the menu is oddly eclectic, yet the decor is strangely safari.\n\nBesides the major misfire in matching theme to decor to menu, the food is great.\n\nThey make a killer huge sampler appetizer platter that will feed 4 easily. \n\nLove the burgers. They will actually cook it to temp med. rare if you ask, which is awesome. I get the standard cheese, which has some sauce I love, which is probably just mayo and ketchup mixed together, but it works for me.\n\nTomato basil soup to die for.\n\nSadly, my favorite item was just taken off the menu, which was the chicken caprese cutlet. Why the hell you others didn't order it is beyond me, but thanks for nothing. I can't carry a whole menu item on my own, ya know.\n\nI've had the chicken marsala with mashed potato and spinach. The spinach was great, chicken average, and potato smooth.\n\nThe salads are huge. The chopped and crab louis are excellent.\n\nMade to order cobbler for desert served a la mode and mud pie (which is mode all on its own - a big, frosty slab of coffee pie with whipped cream and chocolate sauce) are good bets. \n\nThe waitstaff is hit or miss. Most times we've had great service, but it's never personal, meaning, the staff doesn't really chat or form a bond (I like to bond with people bringing me food - it's an Italian thing).\n\nBut, the hostess always has your back, and will scream the requisite THANKS FOR COMING, HOPE YOU ENJOYED IT, on your way out."^^ .
