Some night when the wait at other South Square restaurants is an hour, why not try Spartacus, right across from Macaroni Grill where you can get in right away. The staff is super friendly, the food is excellent (try the rice pudding) and the atmosphere is cozy and colorful. At lunch there is a great buffet. Children are treated with respect too. Parking is ample. The price is a little high but not really considering the quality of the food and service.
Pros: very friendly, no wait, great food
Cons: not much
