   This was such a bad dinner, I will not be coming back. My server made me feel bad about ordering bread or salad, never once offered if I wanted another. We didn't get out second bread until we were nearly done our dinner!!! How is that unlimited bread and salad? Again she made me feel uncomfortable asking and never once offered a refil. The shrimp Alfredo I got was terrible too. It tasted like nothing, the sauce was so watered down. I ended up pitting in half a container of chilli flakes so it would taste like something. I will not be back here.

   Booked through OpenTable but the hottest said they don't take online reservations, only over the phone. She also seemed pretty disorganized while there was a line up out the door. Opted to sit at the bar to eat, bartender didn't welcome us, but understandable as he had other tables and had to make drinks for everyone else. Food was average, nothing special.

   As usual, good food and value - service still a bit slow. Wish salads were in the larger bowls.

   The restaurant forgot to write down our reservation so we had to wait for half an hour with 4 kids. Everything else was amazing as always, we were just disappointed about the reservation

   Service was very slow. It appears that they were severely understaffed. We ordered 4 chicken parmesan dinners and all the chicken was overcooked and burnt on edges (likely from re-cookng) Our experience was not up to the standards we have come to expect from this location. No refills were offered on our drinks at any time.

   There appear to be a lack of organization when it comes to their open table reservations. Upon arrival they had a paper list of reservations and my name was not on it. The place looked like it needed a good sweeping and mopping. The food was okay with the exception of my cesar salad, the bacon was cold and almost raw. The waiter was kind enough to bring a new one,less the bacon. Normally, this place is good but on this day I'm not sure what happened.

    Always enjoy the Chicken Parm and Ceasar salad, unfortunately they have made the salad bowls tiny compared to what was used previously. The Chicken Parm that was supposed to be "as big as your head" is now 2 smaller portions that are substantially less than before. The prices have gone up and the servings have gone down. Very disappointing :(
