This place isn't a family red sauce joint; it's a chain and they can seat 300. In that sense it's a lot like Olive Garden - and in fact the salad and breadsticks seem like they had to have been lifted off of an Olive Garden supply truck - but at the same time, there's no Olive Garden phony-nouveau pre-prepared crud like 'Shrimp Carbonara' - this place sticks to the classics.\r

Service was adequate, the prices fair, portions nice, and they even hi t their marks on some details (like chilled salad plates).\r

You can take the kids, unless they're pretentious dolts, everyone will find something they'll like, you get some breadsticks to keep you busy, the servers are on the ball, it's reasonably clean and won't set you back a small fortune. I call that a winner.
Pros: Great for family
Cons: Nothing you haven't seen before
