Found this little spot driving down 441. There was no wait to get seated. Our server was very friendly and proficient. And the food?! AMAZING! Our whole meal was fresh!! Homemade & delicious. The workers were super nice too. So glad we stopped in and had a great meal
We were recommended to try this place from our neighbors. Well we were very disappointed 😞. The atmosphere was an old house which is fine but our table was out in the middle of traffic near the waiting area where folks were lined up waiting for a table and starringat us while ate hoping we would hurry up so they could grab our tabke. My wife got a steak dinner which was highly recommended to her. It was a good portion but very salty. And we like salt on food but this was extreme. Her ham bean soup tasty also very salty. My salad consisted of just lettuce and one quarter of a tomato that's it. There house dressing tasted very tasteless. My chicken Parmigian was a major bust. We were told although not breaded it was delicious. To me it tasted like a plain chicken cutlet with cheese and sauce somethingI could of made at home. Probably the chicken is a healthier option then fried and breaded but when i eat Italian i dont worry about health I want excellent food. The red sauce was watery and tasteless. The spaghetti was hard and not cooked enough. The house chianti was delicious. Our waitress was wonderful and extremely attentive! There bread was tasteless and almost cold to the mouth. We won't deviate from our wonderful go to spot Sammy's and Piesanos and Red Sauce. Glad we tried it but we won't be back. We're kind of surprised of the long wait and crowd but everyone has different expectations when it comes to food and this was not what we want when it comes to Italian food.
An Italian restaurant lost in time. I've been frequenting this family owned stalwart for over 35 years but this was my first time in a long time. The food is the same, for better or worse, but mostly worse--bland marinara sauce, vinegary house salad, Cheezit flavored-pizza. Their saving grace is the venerable Spaghetti alla Bruzzi. Sometimes the nostalgia isn't enough to forgive your quirks. Italian food has moved on and, sadly, there are better options nearby.
Service was good which is why I gave it 2 stars. The bread was good as was the salad dressing, house italian. Now the pastas, had penne and meatballs. Penne cooked well but the sauce had zero flavor. The meatballs had even less than zero flavor if that's even possible. Another in the party had angel hair with meat sauce. Again pasta cooked well but sauce was lacking any flavor. Another in the party had meat ravioli with meat sauce. I think you know how the sauce was. The ravioli pasta was supper thin so had no pasta flavor. The meat filled had mostly sausage which was at best a weak sausage. It was a very disappointing meal because we have driven by many times but always at a time that they weren't open. The vibe of the place is really good though. Smelled good walking in. Really thought we had found a good place but unfortunately not. Feel no reason to go back.
Friendly efficient staff. Good home style cooking. Would have rated higher but the veal in my dish was tough. I did not say anything because we had a group and didn't want to wait for another preparation. Overall we will go back.
