My fiancee and I decided to check out Di'Cicco's this weekend to try it. We both come from backgrounds in the restaurant business and my fiancee works in a fine dining Italian restaurant and has cooked italian food for most of his life. The food that we were served at Di'Cicco's was some of the worst Italian food I have consumed. First off the first glass of wine I ordered had turned and I was given a different kind of wine that was just awful. The salad was just iceburg and a peppercini with 2 slices of tomato for $3.25!!!! The appetizer was definitely frozen ravioli. The entrees were soaked in watery sauce and covered with cheese. The worst eggplant parmigiana I ever had, the eggplant was mushy and the combination of mushrooms and ground beef was strange. The only thing that was mediocre was the Tiramisu which we were told was made in house. The only positive thing I can say about this experience was the waitress was very kind and knowledgeable about the food. She was attentive to our needs and not invasive at all. The atmosphere was a little hokey and above our table were some dried flowers that were caked in dust, enough to fall off into your food, so that makes me wonder how clean their kitchen is. My fiancee and I were very disappointed at the fact that we wasted $70 on what felt like microwaved t.v .dinner food. We should have left after the bad wine an appetizers but we tried to give them the benefit of the doubt and got burned in the pocket instead. If you are not familiar with good italian food this is the place for you if you want to spend ridiculous amounts of money on pasta, but for the true italian food lovers BEWARE!!! And use some fresh ingredients if you are going to charge those prices!! Hand made pasta at least!!!\r
