I went to eat lunch a little bit after 12 noon on July 4, 2007. A friend of mine had recommended it to me, so I decided to give it a try. I'm familiar with the location, as there used to be a Wolfe's Nursery on the same spot. Anyway, as you enter the place, you can tell that the owners put a lot of effort and $$ into creating a lovely building and thus a very nice ambiance. You are asked your zip code (so they can tell where their customers come from) inside. There is a very short wait as the host person takes you to where your table awaits. The front desk has a cool graphic of the restaurant's tables to indicate which tables are occupied. The host will ask you if you've been there before. This was my first time, so the host explained the different areas as we go to my table. I got a cool room in the back. It had all sorts of photos and artwork from earlier times. There are candelabras in the room and a faux fireplace. The waiter took my drink order (raspberry tea) and I went to get my plate to start eating. So you know, the plates are somewhat small (I guess to prevent overeating?) I had two slices of pepperoni pizza, a portion of Eggplant Parmesan, two delicious meatballs with a serving of spaghetti, garlic mashed potatoes, a couple of breadsticks and a small cannoli. To top that off, I had a serving of chocolate ice cream. Aside from the food and great service, I was enthralled listening to the piped-in music: Dean Martin, Italian themed music, instrumentals, etc. I love that type of music. Too bad I don't understand Italian , so I could better enjoy some of the music. There is plenty of parking and the landscaping around the place is well-maintained. The prices are reasonable for the variety of food that is available to customers. The waiter, Isaac, demonstrated great customer service and asked me every once in a while if I needed anything. Overall, a fantastic experience. Highly recommended. Two big thumbs up!
Pros: variety, ambiance, music
Cons: Some of the dishes could come with a translation /description of item
